Events in Corby From 11th May – 17th May 2026

Home · Events in Corby This Week

You can find a range of activities in Corby this week, from drawing classes to workshops on personal development. This week focuses on creative skills, with sessions for beginners and experienced artists at Rooftop Arts Centre. There are also options for children at the Young Creators class, and opportunities to reflect on life transitions through events at the Corby Mental Health Resource Centre. For something different, check out T&Art, a drop-in session with tea, cakes, and a gallery tour. If you're looking for live music, Waystation hosts RTK Tarantino and Matt Littman on May 16. The town’s history as a steel and iron centre continues to shape its identity, though the industries of the 20th century have changed. East Carlton Country Park offers green space for walks and family outings, but parking can get busy at peak times. The A43 and A6003 provide access to surrounding areas, and Corby railway station runs hourly services via East Midlands Railway. You can reach most venues by train, especially if you're coming from outside the immediate area.
