What’s on in Loughborough this week?

This week in Loughborough, events span music performances at established local venues and community-led gatherings. At Loughborough Town Hall, folk rock legends Steeleye Span take the stage on April 29, followed by comedian Gary Delaney on May 2. G4 perform a pop opera concert on May 1, and singer Alfie Boe appears at De Montfort Hall on May 2. A tribute to The Stone Roses plays at Sally Cinnamon’s Music Venue on May 3.

Weekend events include gardening workshops hosted by Thorpe Acre Community Plots every Saturday at 10am, and craft sessions led by Shelthorpe Women’s Forum on Sundays. Seasonal markets rotate between Market Place and the courtyard of De Montfort Hall, showcasing local producers from nearby Quorn and Birstall.

Community engagement remains strong across shared spaces: conversational evenings take place at The Stables on Wood Street, where residents discuss urban planning or development feedback while music plays in the background. These events reflect Loughborough’s tradition as a market town with active civic life, supported by transport links to Leicester via Loughborough Railway Station.

All listed venues are within 20 minutes’ walk of central points such as Market Place and De Montfort Hall. For specific times and locations, check the event details below.
