Events in Maidstone From 13th April – 19th April 2026

You can find a range of events in Maidstone this week, with options that suit different schedules and moods. Families can join hands-on craft sessions at the Maidstone Museum’s community workshop space on Market Square, where children and adults work together on seasonal projects using recycled materials, these are best visited during weekday afternoons when foot traffic eases along High Street.

For evening outings, there are themed cabaret events taking place upstairs at Mu Mu Cabaret Lounge, where live performance meets crafted cocktails served by local baristas. These gatherings feel grounded rather than flashy, inviting curiosity and casual fun without pretence. On Thursday 16 April, a spoken-word night curated with support from Kent’s literary archive draws contributors ranging from school poets to retired teachers.

There are also activity days for younger attendees at Maidstone West Scouts on Fridays, ideal if you’re looking for something gentle and inclusive during the weekend. And for those seeking character in their evening out, Mu Mu Cabaret Lounge delivers atmosphere without overstatement.
