Events in Woking From 4th May – 10th May 2026

Home · Events in Woking This Week

Looking for events in Woking this week? You can find a mix of options to fill your days and evenings. This week includes live music across different genres and social gatherings aimed at meeting new people. Consider an evening at one of Woking’s bars and clubs, where local talent often performs. While some events are in nearby towns like Guildford or Camberley, the railway connections from Woking Station, served by South Western Railway, make travel straightforward. Woking Station is a key access point, benefiting from the London and Southampton Railway lines.

Woking’s history dates to the Palaeolithic era, with flints found at Horsell and Pyrford. The town appears in the Domesday Book as 'Wochinges' and was a royal vill by the late 9th century. Modern development began in the mid-1860s when the London Necropolis Company sold surplus land around the railway station, leading to rapid urban expansion. The borough has since evolved through transport developments like the Basingstoke Canal and River Wey Navigation. The canal path offers leisurely walks, though be aware of congestion during weekends and holidays.

This is a good week for those interested in live music, social settings, or exploring entertainment beyond the town centre. For family activities, Woking Park provides a safe and open space.

Your best approach is to browse the listings below for the full picture. Check details to confirm travel is feasible, especially since parking in the town centre is limited and the Metropolitan Green Belt restricts expansion.
