Events in Trowbridge From 4th May – 10th May 2026

Home · Events in Trowbridge This Week

You can find a varied selection of events in Trowbridge this week, from live comedy to hands-on workshops. Whether you're after evening entertainment or a chance to learn something new, there's plenty to choose from. The programme includes established acts and emerging talent, with options to suit different interests. A practical workshop on drop spindle spinning is available at the Trowbridge Museum.

This week's events highlight Trowbridge’s continued cultural presence. The town was once one of England’s wealthiest, central to the cloth trade in the 17th and early 18th centuries, producing white broadcloth and dyed Spanish medley. Even after the shift of manufacturing to northern England, Trowbridge remained an industrial hub, known as the 'Manchester of the West.' This legacy is visible in its many Grade I and II* listed buildings, many of which stand along the route to your chosen event.

Trowbridge railway station offers direct trains to London, Bath, and Brighton, making it easy to get to evening events. The M4 motorway junction 17 and A361 road provide convenient access for those driving. Be aware that Fore Street can get congested during the weekly market.

It's a good week for both daytime and evening activities. Browse the listings below for times and venues. While nightlife is growing, public transport options after midnight remain limited. For a scenic route, consider walking along the Kennet and Avon Canal before or after an event.
