About The City Brief Corby
Your Personal Newsletter For All Local Events in Corby
The City Brief keeps Corby residents and visitors informed about what’s happening across town each week. Whether you're exploring the walking trails and sports facilities at West Glebe Park, catching an event at The Core at Corby Cube, or seeing what's on in other neighbourhoods, we compile the local events that matter to your community. Corby has a distinct character shaped by its industrial past and Scottish roots. This identity comes alive through the year: the Scottish Heritage Festival and Annual Highland Gathering celebrate the town’s cultural connections, while Grow Festival, the Corby Carnival, and Operation Pluto Memorial mark the seasons and Corby’s unique place in history. Beyond these events, you can find theatre performances, film screenings, live music, and smaller community gatherings throughout the year. We make sure you know what's happening. We track events across Corby’s neighbourhoods and venues week by week, so you can plan ahead without searching multiple websites or social media pages. Whether it's a family outing to West Glebe Park, a night at a local theatre, or a weekend festival, The City Brief brings together the information in one clear, neighbourly place. Corby’s events scene reflects a town that values both its heritage and its community. From the rare spectacle of The Corby Pole Fair, which returns every 20 years, to the regular programming that keeps the town engaged, there’s always something worth knowing about. We cover the breadth of what’s happening, helping you discover events you might otherwise miss and stay connected to your neighbourhood. This is local events coverage for people who live, work, or simply want to know what Corby is up to this week.
