Rainy Day Picks This Weekend in Risca

10 picks around Risca, from 8 local venues. The map pin is doing actual work here.

25–26 July Near Risca

Not every listing gets a golden ticket

We check the usual frankly silly number of local websites, then look for events that feel rainy-day friendly: cinemas, theatres, talks, workshops, galleries, concerts, cosy venues, and anything less likely to involve standing in a muddy field making brave weather noises.

Happening Saturday 25 July to Sunday 26 July.
Picked for Risca, not somewhere halfway across the county.
Only Local Gems and Curated venues make the cut, because standards are still a thing.
Listings with proper descriptions get bumped up the list. Three words and a shrug will not do.

Solemn Mass8

Solemn Mass

at St John the Evangelist

Our main Sunday service is at 10.30am – at St John’s there is joyful music, traditional hymns, incense, a procession, and a stimulating sermon. It lasts about an hour and is followed by refreshments, and occasionally, by lunch. You are welcome in good times, tough times, festivals or any time at all.
