Home · Events in Horsham This Week

You can find events across Horsham this week that bring together community, creativity, and connection at various locations. Mums with babies can attend movement sessions at Hurst Cafe on Tuesday afternoons, using the enclosed play area for quiet time in green space. Weekly yoga starts beneath the Iron Bridge in Ashdown Forest, where participants gather early to stretch before sunrise with instructors using natural light as a backdrop. Families exploring seasonal activities include guided walks along southern trails of Ashdown Forest, highlighting native flora and historical markers tied to Horsham’s Saxon origins. Children engage at Old Boat Corner during weekend afternoons through interactive exhibits such as role-play areas based on local farming heritage.

Evening events take place in multiple venues including the Town Hall Theatre and independent pubs near South Downs Light Railway access points. Live music features themed disco nights, with a resident band performing every Thursday evening at The White Hart Inn where fish 'n' chip suppers are served from 6pm, tickets include both food and entry. On Fridays, stand-up comedy takes place in the basement bar of Horsham Library’s community space; these events require tickets and are open to adults over eighteen.

Creative craft stalls return during Saturday markets at The Forum car park where local artisans sell handmade goods using recycled materials common across West Sussex crafts traditions. Paint & Sip sessions run on Wednesday evenings, hosted by a collective near the M23 motorway junction, wine is provided with all participants encouraged to bring their own brushes. These gatherings are informal, encouraging conversation and reflection in relaxed surroundings.
