1. Stand-Up Special
Organisers are expecting yet another sell-out night as Kenilworth's new comedy evening returns to the mainstage.
Compere and organiser Harry Jenkins is bringing more top stand up comedians to the Talisman Theatre this May.
The event on May 2 will again be compered by Harry, with Darren Harriott - seen on Live at the Apollo - headlining the night after sets from Leicester Comedy Festival Silver Stand-up winner, Kevin Daniel, Midlands Breaking Talent nominee, Abbie Hale and Ricky Gervais Spirit of Comedy Finalist and British comedian of the year finalist, Ravi Saini.
2. KENFEST
Kenilworth's Beer and Music Festival is returning for its fourth year "bigger and better" this weekend!
The festival will take place at Kenilworth RFC from 1 to 3 May 2026, with great music and great drinks.
The rugby club is once again raising money for Myton Hospice, having raised over £10,000 for the charity last year.
Final tickets remain for the Friday and Sunday sessions - make sure you don't miss out.
Visitors to the festival can expect to enjoy some great food and drink. Local vendors will be serving a variety of food, from Greek gyros and burgers to pizza and ice cream. A selection of 45 different ales will be on offer, including crowd favourite 'hairy tosser'.
3. Stoneleigh Abbey Spring Fayre
Head to Stoneleigh Abbey on Monday 4 May from 10-3pm for the Spring Fayre!
Held in the former Riding School, the fayre will offer a "wonderful selection of talented local crafters" offering a variety of "beautiful handmade items".
The bar will be open during the day serving drinks and tasty snacks!
"Bring the whole family and enjoy a fun-filled day out in a truly stunning setting," organisers said.
