What's on in Arboretum

Worcestershire, England

Arboretum sits quietly in Worcestershire, a spot where the trees do most of the talking and we just listen for what's on next. The Birmingham Catholic Youth Service has been hosting community gatherings for years, proving that good company doesn't need a stadium to feel special. Pub nights and local markets pop up through the seasons without any fuss or fanfare. Near Here keeps our eye on what is going on so you don't have to hunt down flyers in the rain.
