Hi everyone,
Why not step onto the dance floor this May? We're giving you the chance to win two tickets to a new Beginners' Line Dance Class at The Armstrong. You could also win a hearty Sunday roast at The Royal George - the perfect setting to gather with friends or family.
Celebrate the beauty of Thornbury in full bloom at May's Love Thornbury event and snap up bargains for your own garden at a Plant Sale and Craft Fair.
The Early May Bank Holiday weekend brings a fantastic mix of activities. Discover talented local artists on the Severn Vale Art Trail, enjoy intricate displays at the Bristol Model Railway Exhibition or take a peaceful walk among the bluebells at Tortworth. For something more action-packed, step into the world of medieval combat at the Knights' Tournament Day at Berkeley Castle.
There's plenty that's new in Thornbury this month. Tee up something a little different with Thornbury Golf Centre's Gin and Swing Ladies' sessions or brush up your knitting know-how at a new Knit, Stitch and Natter group at the library and at Castle Crafts' Beginners' workshop, then show off your skills at The Swan's 18-Hour Knitter-A-Thon.
Theatre is back in Thornbury! JTP Theatre brings a brand new heartwarming comedy: It's What Matters to the newly refurbished The Armstrong and Thornbury Musical Theatre Group returns to celebrate a new chapter with From This Moment On.
Thornbury's surrounding area is just as lively. The South West Ultra Marathon heads to nearby Tockington Manor School, where families can also explore the School and Nursery Open Day.
There's support for growing families at the "One More to Adore" workshop, while younger children will love the Little City pop-up role play experience at Old Down Country Park, and the Spring Bank Holiday Food and Drink Festival promises a feast of flavours for everyone to enjoy.
Later in the month, Acton Court opens its doors for self-guided tours, events, and workshops, offering a fascinating glimpse into history.
Finally, the Blue Moon at the end of May is the perfect excuse to pause and unwind at a Group Sound Meditation - especially with a discount on our offers page.
