From music events to theatrical productions and from speciality markets to sporting events, there's always something to do in Cirencester and the surrounding Cotswolds.

Annual events include The Cotswold Show and Food Festival at Cirencester Park and the Phoenix Festival, while events close by include The Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford.

The Corinium Museum in Cirencester showcases finds from the Roman town of Corinium (their name for Cirencester) and is well worth a visit. During the warmer weather you may want to take part in watersports or swimming at the Cotswold Water Park.

Further afield, the Badminton Horse Trials, horse racing at the Cheltenham Festival, Cheese Rolling at Cooper's Hill, Cheltenham Jazz Festival, Cheltenham Food and Drink Festival, and quirky events such as Football in the River at Bourton on the Water and Duck Racing at South Cerney are some of the highlights of the events calendar.
