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

Events in Maidstone this week feature live music, family craft sessions, and community meetups across multiple locations from 5 April to 12 April 2026. Pop-up art displays are hosted at Guildhall Square and the lower concourse of The Mall, showcasing work by local artists linked to Maidstone Museum’s outreach projects. Women-led networking groups meet weekly in the café space beneath St John’s Church Hall, building professional connections across education, healthcare, and public service roles.

Evening dance performances are held at Westgate Theatre and the former Kent County Council offices on High Street, with extended hours due to relaxed licensing during spring months.

Children’s activities include a craft workshop for SEND families every Tuesday morning in Maidstone Library’s Community Room, collaboratively run with local support groups. Multi-sports days take place on Saturday mornings at Queen Elizabeth Park and Bredenbury Field, featuring netball drills, obstacle courses using recycled materials, and ball-handling games adapted for younger ages. Afternoon sessions in green spaces like the Royal Gardens are designed for young explorers aged 5 to 9, led by Maidstone Conservation Volunteers during nature scavenger hunts.

Live music ranges from intimate jazz sets at The Old Brewery on Lower High Street, featuring acts from Dartford and Tonbridge, to DJ performances at Mu Mu Cabaret Lounge near Loddington Farm. Acoustic sessions are available mid-week in quieter zones, including the east wing seating area of Guildhall during afternoons for low-stimulation environments.
