Events & entertainment

With vibrant festivals , live gigs, contemporary theatre and unusual rural events, Leicestershire has lots to entertain you!

Leicester itself boasts a wide range of venues for all types of entertainment. With live music at De Montfort Hall , films at the Phoenix and comedy at Jongleurs , there’s plenty to choose from! In the county, Loughborough Town Hall is a major arts and music venue, whilst Melton Mowbray, Market Harborough, Hinckley and Coalville all have their own theatres.

Festivals are a big feature of Leicestershire life too. Highlights of the year include the Leicester Comedy Festival, the bizarre Hallaton Bottle Kicking Contest; the Caribbean Carnival, the Battle of Bosworth Re-enactment and Leicester’s famous Diwali celebrations.
