With activities for music lovers and craft enthusiasts alike, Glastonbury and Street are the places to be.

Friday, 22nd November

Start your weekend in Glastonbury at The Red Hot Jazz Club, where the renowned La Cubana Trio will bring authentic Cuban rhythms to life. This intimate evening, featuring Milly Riquelme on vocals and keys, will raise funds for the Red Brick Building's restoration project. Why not make a night of it and enjoy a Jazz Supper alongside the show? Tickets are available online now.

For those near Shepton Mallet, LandAlive kicks off at the Bath & West Showground. This two-day event celebrates sustainability and land stewardship, offering a unique opportunity to engage with workshops, discussions, and exhibits aimed at a greener future.

Saturday, 23rd November

Creativity takes centre stage at the Somerset Rural Life Museum in Glastonbury, where the Ink Jam Angel Workshop invites participants to craft their own 3D angels using recycled materials. Your creations will join the 'Chorus of Angels' display in December, part of the museum's wider Christmas celebrations.

Meanwhile, in Wells, the United Voices concert unites the Glastonbury Male Voice Choir and PRP Contemporary Voices for an evening of soul-stirring music at St Thomas' Church. All proceeds will support Sounds Joyful, Glastonbury's dementia-inclusive music group.

In Shepton Mallet, LandAlive continues, offering an experience to dive deeper into sustainability initiatives.
