What's on in Epsom Downs

Epsom sits on the hillside where the racecourse has been staging the big day for centuries, but there is plenty of other fun to be found when the horses aren't galloping. The venue hosts everything from local athletics meets to community shows that bring the whole neighbourhood out for a sunny afternoon. It's a place where the pace quickens without anyone needing to run for cover. You can catch a comedy act on a summer night or watch a film under the stars when the weather permits. Near Here keeps track of all these gatherings so you don't have to sift through pages of listings to find what suits your mood. Just pick a date and head down there before the crowds arrive.
