Events in Brentwood From 18th May – 24th May 2026

This week in Brentwood, events span theatre performances, live music, and family-friendly activities. You can find a range of options, from children’s rhymes at Brentwood Theatre to outdoor festivals. The town’s arts scene features local productions, while music events take place across the region. Accessible via the Elizabeth Line, A12, or M25, plan your visit around potential congestion at junction 29. The Brentwood Festival may bring crowds, so check transport options, especially on Ongar Road. With the town’s history as an administrative and commercial hub, there are always opportunities to enjoy culture and community life. Consider attending the Rhyme Time session at Brentwood Theatre on May 18, or the musical Evita, also at Brentwood Theatre, on May 18 and 19. For live music, check out the bottomless brunch at Loft Lounge in Bexleyheath, or the outdoor indie festival at Wheelers Farm in Chelmsford. A short drive away, Soultasia presents GROOVE IS IN THE PARK at Harlow Rugby Club, and the Country Club festival returns to Wheelers Farm. The lifestyle events and weekend gatherings offer something for every taste. Check event times and locations for details.
