Home · Events in Woking This Week
You can find a diverse mix of events in Woking this week, with options for families and music lovers alike. Storytelling sessions for young children take place at library spaces including Horsell Library and Pyrford Community Hub, where local folklore drawn from Palaeolithic-era findings nearby is shared. Hands-on craft workshops occur weekly at Woking Park’s visitor centre and Brookwood Hall, using materials sourced from protected green areas like the Basingstoke Canal path. Outdoor activities for children aged five and up include magic-themed camps hosted at Woking Leisure Centre during school holidays, as well as guided river walks along the River Wey Navigation.
Parents can find drop-in play hubs operating weekdays in town centre locations such as King’s Road Library and Mayford Community Space, offering messy exploration zones with sensory materials. These are accessible via South Western Railway services from Woking Station, making them convenient for commuters seeking short breaks during working hours.
Live performances bring rhythm to the week across genres, indie rock bands play in intimate venues like The Kings Head and Stag Inn on evenings following peak rail traffic, while tribute acts celebrate classic hits such as those by Nirvana or Jamiroquai. Jazz evenings occur at Woking Town Hall, soul parties are hosted monthly aboard boats moored near Brookwood railway station, and disco nights take place fortnightly in the Westfield area of town centre.
Comedians including Al Murray appear at theatres such as The Guildhall during midweek slots, offering stand-up with themes ranging from transport history to local politics. Music lovers can enjoy tribute acts spanning decades, from 1970s rock to early 2000s electronica, held in spaces that accommodate small audiences without crowding.
Cultural events fill the schedule: gallery tours of current exhibitions at Woking Museum and interactive sessions on topics such as interfaith dialogue or beginner-level creative filmmaking take place across Horsell, Mayford, and Pyrford. These are opportunities to learn something new without stepping far from home.
