Home · Events in Kettering This Week
You can find events across Kettering this week that bring together community, creativity, and connection at locations including libraries, theatres, and local hubs. Weekly walks follow the River Nene trail for gentle movement, while cycling challenges organized by Kettering CC take place on routes such as the Grafton Underwood circuit. Craft sessions happen at both the Burton Latimer Community Managed Library and Desborough Community Library (term time only), where tea and homemade biscuits are available during drop-in times.
Family activities include story time for under-fives every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, and baby rhymes with sensory play on Wednesdays. Dementia support groups meet weekly at Rothwell Library, offering calm social interaction in a relaxed setting.
Evenings feature live music across established venues like The Old Savoy theatre space and the Town Hall hall, where tribute acts perform classic rock from the 1970s and '80s. Silent discos take place at The Picturedrome bi-weekly, with pop, indie, and dance tracks played through headphones in an immersive experience. One performance blends stand-up comedy with hypnotic techniques hosted by a local act drawing from civic themes.
The town’s quiet rhythm of accessible programming reflects its historical roots as Cetra's tun during the Anglo-Saxon era, echoed today through independent businesses on High Street and ongoing community-led events at venues including Wicksteed Park visitor centre. Parking there is charged per vehicle rather than per person, which some families find costly.
These events are supported by public transport links such as the Midland Main Line via East Midlands Railway services, making access possible for many residents.
