What's on in Bridgend

Renfrewshire, Scotland

No stadium concerts here, just the good local stuff: markets, meetups, and events where you'll probably bump into someone you know. Classic Bridgend. Quiz nights, coffee mornings, craft fairs, book clubs, film screenings — the sort of calendar that makes somewhere feel properly local. Village halls with heating that works on a good day. Community centres that smell faintly of old carpet and possibility. Pubs hosting quizzes and open mics and talks about things you didn't know existed. We've found it all and put it in one place, because life's too short to check seventeen different websites every week.

A Home for Hamish - Doors 2.30pm

A Home for Hamish is a colourful, immersive and interactive adventure for young audiences aged 4-7 and their families. “Playfully merging dance and British Sign language in a sensory world, A Home for Hamish follows the story of May and their imaginary friend, Hamish the Haggis as they travel across Scotland to find a perfect night’s sleep.” Home for Hamish is aimed at family audiences, offering an engaging, inclusive theatre experience that appeals to children and adults alike. The show is designed to be accessible to both deaf and hearing audiences, with British Sign Language (BSL) fully integrated into the performance as a natural part of the storytelling. Home for Hamish is also thoughtfully designed with Autistic audiences in mind, creating a supportive environment where everyone can feel comfortable and included. With relaxed performances and a welcoming atmosphere, the production embraces neurodivergent experiences and aims to ensure that Autistic children and their families can enjoy the magic of live theatre together, without stress or pressure. Set against the backdrop of a journey around Scotland, Home for Hamish also holds strong local appeal, celebrating familiar places and shared cultural touchpoints in a way that feels welcoming and recognisable. The production invites families of all backgrounds and access needs to enjoy a shared experience that is fun, meaningful, and fully inclusive – without separating BSL theatre from typical theatre.
