Take Part | Gloucester Guildhall

Creativity has a way of bringing people together and Take Part is where that happens. Across Gloucester, we’re building spaces to talk, make, move and share experiences. From gentle social gatherings to lively workshops and city‑wide celebrations, we’re here to spark connection and help people feel less alone.

Join us for conversations, classes, one‑off sessions or deeper courses. However you take part, you’re part of the community.

Festivals & Events

Our festivals and events bring Gloucester together for the things that make life feel good: music, movement, creativity, culture and community. They’re spaces to celebrate with friends, bring the family, or meet new people who share your passions. Whether it’s a lively city‑wide moment or a smaller get‑together, everything we do is about connection, creativity and having a great time together.

Talks & Workshops

Get stuck in and celebrate the things you love in our relaxed, creative spaces where you can share ideas, try new skills and meet people who feel the same way you do. Whether you’re here for conversation, making, learning or exploring something that excites you, these sessions are designed to help you connect, grow and find your people in a way that feels natural and uplifting.

Our Community

Our Community is a mix of voices, talents and local groups who help shape what we do. These partnerships bring new ideas, shared passions and fresh perspectives into our spaces, creating moments that feel connected, creative and truly Gloucester. When we work together, the city feels a little brighter.
