What is ...around town?

...around town is a vibrant talent development initiative by Cheltenham Festivals, supported by Cheltenham BID, designed to showcase local and emerging artists. This eclectic programme brings live performances and activities to pubs, bars and other dynamic spaces throughout Cheltenham, all completely free of charge.

As part of our commitment to accessibility and supporting fresh talent, ...around town offers audiences the chance to discover new music, celebrate local creativity and experience the heart of Cheltenham’s cultural scene during our live Festivals. Whether it’s a spontaneous pop-up show or a unique performance, ...around town is where the next wave of artists and headliners can be found.

Join us and be part of the movement that keeps world-class culture open and accessible to everyone in our community.
