Events Calendar
Plymouth is well known for hosting some of the best events in the South West and each week you are guaranteed to find something to get involved in.
These vary from Plymouth's top events, which are major annual events including Armed Forces Day, the British Firework Championships, Pirates Weekend Plymouth and food & drink Festivals, like Flavour Fest and Seafood Festival.
Plymouth's fantastic big screen sits in the shopping quarter of the city, and it's here where you can pull up a chair and watch many live screenings. From world-wide events such as the Olympic Games and Wimbledon to the Royal Ballet and childrens animated films.
There are many smaller community based events that happen within the city which are promoted for the local people of Plymouth, but are also open to all visitors, so it's always worth checking what's going on.
