Events in Essex

Pick a town to see what's on — from quiz nights to kids' workshops, there's always something happening round the corner.

Essex stretches from the Thames estuary right up to the M25, and there are always new ideas bubbling up in towns like Great Tey and Little Chesterford. You'll find everything from community theatre shows to local markets popping up in places you might not expect, including Stroud Green and Sandon.

Waterhouse keeps its own pace with friendly gatherings that make the weekend feel a bit less rushed. Near Here spots all these local get-togethers so you can skip the usual Sunday scroll and head straight for fun.

Handy if you already know the place and don't fancy alphabet aerobics.
