Every town with something dated coming up, busiest first.
Every event here carries a start and an end date and disappears the day after it finishes, so nothing on this page is stale. We collect them from the organisations that run them rather than charging venues to appear, which is why the free library session sits next to the big paid day out. See where every listing comes from. Times and prices still change at short notice, so check with the venue before you set off.
