What’s On… in Royston and Beyond The Listing What’s On guide is the most comprehensive guide in the area, helping you to plan how to spend your free time. Our online diary and printed pages are reserved for one-off events, rather than reoccurring events, meetings and classes. Click here to visit our online organisation directory for more information on our local clubs and societies.
Do you have an event you would like to promote? Simply email your events to hello@thelistingmagazine.co.uk and it will be included online and in our printed magazines in the month of the event (subject to space and other terms.)
If you wanted your event to really stand out, you might also like to consider running an advert in the magazine too, or possibly consider our door-to-door leaflet delivery service. Discounted advertising rates are given for charity and not for profit organisations.
IMPORTANT: The risk of contracting COVID-19 means that any events may be subject to change or cancellation. Therefore, we urge that you double check with the event holder that it is still going ahead and to follow the latest guidance from Public Health England.

Royston Rotary Virtual Balloon Race
Royston Rotary Virtual Balloon Race
Sep 14 all-day
Buy your virtual balloon (as few or as many as you like) from the club at £3 each. You get to choose the shape, colour and helium content. Then it will be launched to race for seven days against, hopefully, thousands of others from around 20 fund-raising causes. It will respond just like a “real” balloon to wind, temperature and weather and you can track its progress on Google Earth. Those balloons which travel the furthest in a week will be judged the winners The first prize is £500, the second an Apple iPad and there are lots of lesser prizes, each winning a £10 book token. And if the Royston club manages to sell more than 500 balloons, then the one from our area that goes the furthest will get an extra £50. We think the event will particularly appeal to youngsters and we are appealing to mums and[...]
