October at the Clarence

Posted: 6th October 2025

October is set to be a lively month at the Clarence Hall, with something for everyone. The varied line-up ranges from local talks and concerts to markets and family entertainment.

Highlights include the ever-popular u3a meeting with a talk on “Music’s Golden Age” with Stephen Marshall, a concert by the Cân Aderyn Singers in aid of the Living with Dementia Society and an inspiring day hosted by Llangattock Green Valleys exploring the future of community energy.  Mid-month brings a relaxing Musical Tea with the Wales Recorder Orchestra and harpist Eleri Darkins, along with a chance to join in Community Conversations with PAVO.  The Crickhowell Garden Society meets to hear Rob Evans of Pheasant Acre Plants on the theme of spring bulbs and Mischievous Cow Events return with their excellent Vintage, Antique & Makers Market.

For those looking for something livelier, British Kingdom Pro Wrestling promises family-friendly fun in the ring, while the regular Bingo night with Mike Davies offers a more traditional kind of entertainment.  October also brings an evening of high-energy rhythm and soul from Big Mac’s Wholly Soul Band and a feel-good lunchtime concert with Uskulele.  The brand new Celtic Roots Festival is hosting several events at the Hall, including a concert with Crickhowell Choral Society, harpist Rose Graham and soprano Eve Carey, a Twmpath and an afternoon of poetry readings with a special guest!

Crickhowell Volunteer Bureau continue to run their much-loved activities throughout the month, with their newly-launched fortnightly Luncheon Club proving a popular initiative, bringing people together for good food, company and entertainment.  Regular groups such as Painting for Pleasure, Knit & Natter and Time to Reminisce provide space for creativity and conversation, while Chess Club, Massage Sessions, Line Dancing and Indoor Bowls offer opportunities to relax and keep active.  

With so much on the calendar, October at the Clarence Hall offers a wealth of ways to meet, learn, celebrate and connect.  Keep an eye out for posters, social media updates and our website to find out more –https://www.clarencehallcrickhowell.org.uk/whats-on/
