What's on in Guildford

Guildford has a rich and varied cultural scene with first-class venues offering quality entertainment throughout the year, from drama and dance to exhibitions and lectures. Guildford is fortunate to enjoy a wide range of music events, from classical recitals to jazz bands, folk singers to pop groups. You'll find amazing things to do from January right through to Christmas in Guildford in December.

There are several free events designed to interest, educate and entertain young and old.  Green Day, Guildford WalkFest, Heritage Open Days, Cleaner Air Day, Guildford Book Festival and the Festive Family Fun Day are highlights of the calendar.  Featuring markets, information, music, and free have-a-go, fun activities, there’s something for everyone. 

Free guided walks around Guildford are a perfect way of seeing and learning about Guildford's heritage in a small amount of time.  Learn more about Guildford free guided walks.

All year-round, the cobbled (always referred to as cobbles but they are officially setts) High Street plays host to a monthly Farmers' Market which is held on the 1st Tuesday of Every month and several other markets including vintage, craft and food & drink.   Take a look at our Market's in Guildford page.
