Rainy Day Picks This Weekend in Brookfield

10 picks around Brookfield, from 2 local venues. The map pin is doing actual work here.

25–26 July Near Brookfield

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 Brookfield, 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.

Bongo's Bingo1Free! (worth double-checking)

Bongo's Bingo

at SWG3

The infamous bingo show putting a unique twist on a traditional game: a wild night of rave intervals, awkward dance offs, big money and ridiculous prizes. Bongo's Bingo is a wild shared social extravaganza and a night of pure nostalgic escapism. Whilst staying true to the original rules, Bongo's immerses you in a wild night out with the chance to win iconic prizes from giant pink unicorns and Henry Hoovers, to mobility scooters and karaoke machines. It’s immersive, inclusive and incredible. Everyone from 18 to 92 plays and parties together. There are no barriers and no limits. Quite simply, there’s nothing else like it.
