Events in Andover From 27th April – 3rd May 2026

You can find a mix of activities shaping what's on in Andover this week across its town centre, green spaces, and community hubs. Family sessions are held at locations including Market Square Green and nearby play zones, offering structured yet informal entertainment for children aged three to ten alongside caregivers seeking relaxed social interaction. Live music returns regularly through acoustic sets performed at venues such as The Old Mill Café and Andover Community Centre during late afternoon and early evening hours, ideal timing for residents commuting from work or returning via train from London Waterloo. Small ensembles, including local folk groups and jazz trios, perform in informal settings that encourage audience engagement without the formality of ticketed events.

Comedy nights take place at The Forge Club and other intimate spaces during midweek evenings, providing a platform for emerging performers to test new material within an encouraging setting shaped by community feedback. Workshops on seasonal crafts, such as upcycling textiles or wood carving, are scheduled throughout the week, often led by volunteer instructors from local arts groups. Wellbeing sessions covering mindfulness techniques and gentle movement are also offered at Andover Leisure Centre during quieter hours.

There’s no single theme dominating events in Andover this week; instead it's about variety without compromise. You can expect casual gatherings that feel open-ended and inclusive rather than strictly ticketed or formal affairs, these happen at different times, giving you flexibility whether your plans lean toward early morning walks with a coffee break near the railway station, midweek quiet time after work, or weekend socials in shared public spaces.
