The towns of Glastonbury and Street are gearing up for an action-packed weekend this September, offering an eclectic mix of events that promise to cater to a wide range of interests. Whether you're into spirituality, motorsport, or music, the local calendar has got you covered.

Before we delve into the weekend's offerings, a special mention must go to our newsletter sponsor, The King Arthur on Benedict Street in Glastonbury.

Known as the best music venue in town, The King Arthur consistently delivers top-notch performances and offers a cosy, inviting atmosphere.

Kicking off the festivities is the Wellbeing Weekend Retreat, scheduled from Thursday, 7 September to Sunday, 10 September. This retreat will be hosted at the Chalice Well Trust on Chilkwell Street in Glastonbury, offering an idyllic backdrop for attendees keen on spiritual rejuvenation.

Not strictly Glastonbury or Street, but there's so many of you with campervans that this might be of interest - head to the Bath & West Showground in Shepton Mallet for the South West Motorhome & Campervan Show, which runs from Friday, 8 September to Sunday, 10 September. From vintage beauties to modern marvels, the show has something for everyone.

Don't miss the Glastonbury Tor-Nament 2023 if Frisbee is more your pace. This community sports event will be held at Tor Sports & Leisure on Street Road in Glastonbury from Friday, 8 September to Sunday, 10 September.

The Railway Rev-Up Vintage Vehicle Show provides a fantastic outing for vintage vehicle admirers. Located at The Railway Inn on Ashcott Road in Meare, Glastonbury, this show will unfold over Saturday, 9 September and Sunday, 10 September.

Make sure to clear your schedule for the much-anticipated Walton Fun Day. The event promises to be a community favourite, adding to the stellar line-up of activities taking place across Glastonbury and Street.

As for the music scene, The Invisible Opera Company of Tibet will perform at the King Arthur from 20:00 to 23:00 on Saturday, 9 September. Given the venue's reputation for musical excellence, this is certainly one for the diary.

On Sunday, 10 September, attendees can look forward to two calming yet different auditory experiences. A Sound Bath is slated for 19:30 to 21:00 at The Glastonbury Goddess Temple on High Street, while Andy Grant's Sunday Session will round off the weekend at The King Arthur, from 20:00 to 22:00.

Meanwhile at Strode Theatre in Street, you can catch either Haunted Mansion or 101 Dalmations over the weekend.

This weekend promises something for everyone— from sports and motors to spirituality and music. Whether you're a local or just visiting, you won't want to miss out on the rich array of events coming your way.
