What's on in Grantham

Lincolnshire, England

Share:X / TwitterFacebookWhatsApp

Grantham sits comfortably in Lincolnshire where the river Ouse flows past, and you can usually find a reason to leave the house without driving far. The Grantham Museum on St Peter's Hill has been showing off local history for decades, while community groups often pop up with quizzes or talks that keep neighbours talking. It is a place where the pace matches the countryside, yet there are plenty of indoor options when the rain decides to make an appearance. Whether you fancy a quiet afternoon in the museum or want to catch a local performance, Near Here keeps the list handy so you do not have to hunt for ideas on a Tuesday night.
