Events in Cheltenham From 30th March – 5th April 2026

You can find a mix of events in Cheltenham this week, from family-friendly gatherings to late-night music sessions.

This week’s schedule shows ongoing community involvement with cultural activities that run from daytime into evening. Public spaces like Pittville Park and Sandford Parks host free interactive installations during Easter weekend, letting children join sensory play or temporary art workshops at no cost. Families can also attend open-air story sessions in Cheltenham Library’s courtyard between 10:30 AM and 4:00 PM on three consecutive days, these events are for small groups and do not require booking.

Evening options focus less on big public venues than on independent bars across the town. The area around Regent Street has several music nights run by local collectives; one event in a pub basement features an underground drum & bass set with rotating guest DJs from Bristol and Gloucester, running between 9:00 PM and midnight, entry under £8 after 10:30 PM. Another session on Thursday includes nostalgic Ibiza-style mixes played across two adjacent venues linked by foot traffic signals.

There is also a weekly singing circle at The Old Post Office pub, open mic format for amateur vocalists; sign-ups are done via the venue’s noticeboard, and participants can bring instruments or perform solo. These events show how Cheltenham keeps cultural programming consistent through varied formats and community-led efforts, with timings adapted to seasonal schedules.
