Events in Corby From 6th April – 12th April 2026

Home · Events in Corby This Week

You can find a varied programme of events across Corby this week, reflecting both long-standing community traditions and emerging cultural initiatives. Family sessions are available at multiple local libraries, including drop-in activities for infants and toddlers during half term, craft workshops tailored to children aged five to twelve, and storytelling gatherings held in communal spaces welcoming caregivers and young attendees. These locations often include quiet corners equipped with reading materials suitable for early readers.

Creative engagement continues through drawing classes hosted at Rooftop Arts Centre, where participants of all ages can explore line work and colour theory using locally sourced supplies. Knitting circles meet weekly at Burton Latimer Community Managed Library, focusing on practical techniques such as cable stitching and shaping garments from wool supplied by regional producers. Outdoor activity includes health walks that begin each Tuesday and Friday morning at Corby Library entrance point, leading through green spaces like East Carlton Park where benches are available for resting.

Live music performances take place across several indoor venues in the town centre during weekends, primarily on evenings when train services arrive from Northampton via East Midlands Railway. These include acoustic sets underlined by folk and experimental sound bath sessions held at Barnwell Village Hall auditorium, designed to support mental wellbeing through resonant tones over sustained periods.

Themed performances range from puppetry displays in April for children aged four to seven to short plays staged in collaboration with local theatre groups using scripts adapted from Corby's industrial past. Events are advertised by the town council; times and locations can be confirmed via public information boards at station entrances, library kiosks, or on official noticeboards near Phoenix Parkway during peak hours.
