Events in Plymouth From 20th April – 26th April 2026

You can find a range of activities across Plymouth this week, 19 to 26 April 2026, from family events in public spaces to performances at established venues. Open soft play sessions run daily at The Hub at Foulston Park, offering space for children and caregivers; the venue has remained consistent since its redevelopment as part of post-war urban planning that prioritised civic use over private development. Families may also find interest in interactive workshops hosted by local organisations, often held during weekday afternoons at community centres near St Andrew’s Church or on Armada Way.

Music events are spread across multiple locations including the Plymouth Arena for larger gatherings, Home Park Stadium, and smaller bars along Union Street. Live acts span genres, from indie bands performing in intimate settings to drum & bass sets hosted by local collectives at venues that double as music hubs during evening hours. The 25th anniversary of Amélie includes special screenings across city centre locations such as the Plymouth Arts Centre, where cultural programming has long been supported through public funding aimed at sustaining heritage-focused initiatives.

Comedians perform regularly in settings like Theatre Royal or local pubs near Drake Circus; Josh Widdicombe’s upcoming appearance is one example among several engagements hosted by professional touring networks. Networking breakfasts for professionals are held monthly across civic spaces such as the Devonport Business Centre, often linked to transport hubs including Plymouth Railway Station or ferry links.

Cultural performances include National Theatre Live broadcasts at venues near Park and Ride services, these locations were selected based on accessibility via public transit routes serving both city centre areas and peripheral neighbourhoods. Attendees are advised to check specific times through official listings provided by the City Council’s event database, which incorporates real-time updates on transport disruptions affecting ferry or rail access.
