Events

Axminster has always been a town for celebrations.

It used to be that every time a carpet was finished, the church bells were rung to commemorate it. Today, there is a packed calendar of events that celebrate all aspects of our beautiful town, from its past to its present. From our annual historic Cherry Fayre, to lighting the town up at Christmas, to wizarding scavenger hunts, this is only the beginning of the excitement that flows through the streets of Axminster. All upcoming events are listed here.
