This summer, Gloucester is all about Sound. From June to September, we’re celebrating the sounds that make up our city, from some of the UK’s biggest live music acts to the quiet places in the city where you can find moments of connection.
Visit Gloucester is bringing together all of this in Gloucester’s Summer of Sound. Scroll down and Click on the tiles below to explore different ways to experience the Sounds of the City this summer
Our Featured Events include Gloucester Cathedral’s Organ Festival, which celebrates a landmark moment in its musical history with the unveiling of its new organ.
The icon that is Sir Tom Jones, filing the stadium at Kingsholm, along with summer vibes with the Ministry of Sound Classical Orchestra enchanting Gloucester’s night sky, as part of Gloucester Rugby’s Summer Series.
The city’s much-loved Rhythm & Blues Festival, coordinated by Gloucester Business Improvement District (BID) and supported by ten amazing venues, is set to bring the streets alive once again for ten jam-packed days.
Get Lost in Music for a week this August, and dive into a world of rhythm, voice and tune at Gloucester Guildhall with family-friendly activities, performances, trails and more, all inspired by the immersive nature of music.
Explore our Music section to explore all the gigs and music events, the Take a Moment section for ways to explore your connection to the city through sound, and the City Sounds section for all the places that simply sing ‘Gloucester’.
From mid-June, pick up a What’s On Guide around town, look out for banners and flags across the city centre connecting all of our great attractions, and (most importantly!) bookmark this page and follow us on socials, where we’ll be making a big noise about the best events, experiences and places to visit in the city this summer.
