Events in Peterborough From 30th March – 5th April 2026

You can find a lively mix of events in Peterborough this week, from 29 March to 5 April 2026. Families can join Easter workshops at Nene Park’s community hub or take part in free fitness sessions near Peterborough Museum and Art Gallery. Live music takes place across town, including local bands performing at The Boulevard Club and soulful dance nights hosted at intimate venues downtown. Culture stays strong: life drawing classes are held weekly at the museum gallery using works from its Victorian-era industrial prints and regional landscapes. Themed film screenings on East Coast Main Line railway history happen at Peterborough Library’s screening room, with subtitles for hearing-impaired viewers. Theatrical productions feature amateur casts rehearsing in community halls near the A1(M), bringing stories of rural 20th-century life to stage.

Food events include a luxury high tea experience with vintage china and locally sourced scones served just outside Peterborough railway station. Coffee mornings at independent stalls on Market Square support Save The Children fundraising. Craft markets are held under temporary canopies near the River Nene bridge access point, where vendors sell handmade items to fund youth outreach programmes linked to public transport safety initiatives aimed at reducing crime rates and improving pavement conditions for commuters using East Coast Main Line routes.
