What is ...around town?

...around town is Cheltenham Festivals' talent development programme, created to champion emerging artists, performers and creatives while bringing the spirit of our Festivals into the heart of the town.

In association with Cheltenham BID, ...around town transforms cafés, pubs, bars and public spaces into Festival venues, offering free performances, pop-up events and interactive experiences during our four Festivals.

Whether you're discovering your next favourite musician, hearing fresh ideas from inspiring speakers or stumbling across an unexpected performance, ...around town is all about making world-class culture more open, more accessible and part of everyday life.

It's a chance to experience Cheltenham Festivals in a different way, support the next generation of creative talent and discover something new.

No ticket needed. Just drop in and enjoy.
