What was on across Cirencester and the Cotswolds, April to May 2026
April in Cirencester has a particular quality. The town quietly gets busier, the pubs start putting their tables out, every second person you meet is walking a dog or painting a fence. The events calendar follows suit. These events have now finished. Here's what was on across town, and a few things further out.
This fortnight's highlights
Head-Bangers Circus: Adventure of Taking Flight
Aerial performance show, billed as family-friendly, and a good one for grandchildren.
More info →Women's Drumming Circle (Beltane)
Held in a Roundhouse in the woods. Not my usual Thursday night, but several clients have recommended it. Noisier than yoga.
More info →EFest Music Festival 2026
Two stages, 29 acts, Rock 'n' Roll Bingo and fancy dress. Raises money for Prospect Hospice and the Roxi Foundation. Max 250 adult weekend tickets so worth booking.
More info →Gurt Wings pop-up
Multi-award-winning fried chicken. I've not had them yet. High on the list.
More info →Sound Baths at Studio 24
If you've never been to one, it's an hour of lying on a mat while someone plays gongs and singing bowls. More relaxing than it sounds. Word of mouth is that it's booking up.
More info →Churn Project plant sale
Annual event, brilliant for bedding plants and hanging baskets at a fair price. Funds the Churn Project's community work, which supports a lot of the same local people I help through my work.
