Nighttime music happens at pubs, bars, and community halls across the town centre and riverside areas. Events like the Dickens Festival draw regular performances during winter months, while summer evenings feature acoustic sets or small concerts near historic sites. These venues tend to host informal live acts with an emphasis on local artists.
