What's on in Leyland

Leyland sits quietly in Lancashire with a proper industrial heart that still beats strong enough for some great events. The British Commercial Vehicle Museum puts on shows that make you look at lorries quite differently without needing to be an engineer. It is a place where history and fun mix nicely, so you can spend the afternoon learning about heavy transport or just people-watching. Pub quizzes and local craft stalls usually pop up in the town centre when the weather turns crisp. Families head for the park on sunny afternoons while theatre groups find a stage somewhere nearby. Near Here keeps track of all the good times so you do not have to waste an evening scrolling through endless lists.
