Events in Weston-super-mare From 18th May – 24th May 2026

You can find events in Weston-super-Mare this week offering a mix of live music, comedy, and family activities. Check the listings below for shows at venues across the town. The calendar includes performances at Front Room, Winter Gardens, and other local spots. You’ll see options for evening outings, with music and comedy gigs scheduled for May 19 to 22. Some events cater to children, including a storytelling workshop and a quiz celebrating Mickey Mouse at Weston Museum. A short drive away, there’s a live music event at Tiger Yard in Cardiff. The Longest Johns perform sea shanties at The Globe in Cardiff, while Gareth Porter takes the stage at Clwb Ifor Bach in Cardiff. For those in the city, Front Room hosts stand-up comedy, drag performances, and social dance events, all within walking distance of the bus hub on Alexandra Parade. You’ll need to plan ahead for parking, especially near the pier and beachfront, where tide levels affect access. The M5 motorway and Great Western Railway provide reliable transport links, and the X1/X1s bus service connects the town centre to surrounding areas. The Tropicana swimming pool remains closed, and Birnbeck Pier repair funding remains uncertain. A short drive away, Tiger Yard hosts Shangri-La’s 2026 Open Air series with Luke Dean and Locky. The Winter Gardens will host a social dance event on May 24. You can find details on times and venues below. Remember to check your commute, while the town is accessible by train and bus, some locations lie outside the city centre. The town developed in the 19th century as a seaside resort, with the Grand Pier and tramways built to serve visitors. The town continues to host live performances despite ongoing infrastructure challenges.
