Home · Events in Taunton This Week

As the week unfolds in Taunton, you’ll find a range of activities designed for enjoyment. If you're looking for events in Taunton this week, you’ll discover opportunities spanning skill development, community wellbeing, and live musical performances. The town’s rhythm offers several ways to participate. You can easily reach venues across the town using the M5 motorway or Taunton railway station.

For personal or professional development, consider multi-day instruction to gain essential practical skills for workplace readiness. These courses often take place at Bridgwater & Taunton College, offering a structured learning environment. Check listings for course details and registration.

Alongside this, you might consider a community gathering focused on wellbeing. These gatherings often occur in Vivary Park, providing a space for reflection and connection, allowing you to participate in supportive activities. Keep in mind that public transport access to Vivary Park could be improved, so plan your journey accordingly.

Musically, you can anticipate live vocal performances in the evenings. Local pubs often host these, offering a background for socialising with familiar songs. Alternatively, enjoy a lunchtime concert showcasing international music. This allows you to experience different musical traditions in an informal setting. Theatres in town also regularly host performances, adding to the variety of musical offerings.

You have varied options for filling your days and evenings, whether you’re aiming to learn something new, connect with a community initiative, or simply enjoy live performance. Be mindful that parking can be busy in central areas, particularly near the station, and congestion can occur during peak hours.

Check the listings below for times and venues. Consider using the Park and Ride at Cambria Farm to avoid town centre traffic. The West Somerset Railway offers a scenic, if slower, means of arriving for some events.
