This Week in Stirling: Events to Explore

From 26 April to 3 May 2026, live music events take place at Tolbooth, a venue with historical roots and regular performances. The Wildhearts, a UK rock band known for their 1980s-era sound, play here on 1 May. Ashley Campbell also performs her Goodnight Nashville tour at the same location. These shows are held in the evening, aligning with public transport arrivals from M80 and M9 motorway routes.

Evening sessions happen at smaller venues like The Larder and City Rooms near Stirling Railway Station. They offer acoustic sets in intimate settings. These are not formal events but appear in local updates issued by the City Council’s digital channels via bus stop displays or email lists. Performances typically run from 7:30 to 9:15pm, avoiding peak parking demand.

Comedy nights occur at The Old Town Hall on select evenings. Local performers take part instead of touring acts. No booking required; these are timed for public transport schedules.

Family activities happen at Stirling Bridge Park playground and Greenhall Play Area. On weekends, interactive installations operate there. Drop-in craft sessions using recycled materials also take place at Greenhall. These do not appear in mainstream listings but are shared through the Council’s public info channel.

Check listed times below; changes to venue or start time may be issued up to 24 hours prior due to staffing shifts tied to rail operations or seasonal weather.
