Events in Hamilton From 6th April – 12th April 2026

Home · Events in Hamilton This Week

You can find live music, comedy, and cultural events across Hamilton this week, from 5 to 12 April 2026. Performances take place in small spaces near Cadzow Street and at community venues like The Caledonian Hall, where local artists present spoken word or folk sets. Stand-up comedy is held at the St Andrew’s Centre on Wednesday and Saturday nights, featuring comedians from Glasgow-based touring circuits.

A key event this week takes place in the courtyard next to the Hamilton Mausoleum, access remains difficult for people using wheelchairs or those with walking difficulties due to uneven paths. The evening features saxophone-led groups and vocalists from regional conservatoires, supported by the South Lanarkshire Arts Forum.

Family storytelling occurs at Hamilton Library on Sunday afternoons, open in both English and Scots dialects. These sessions are part of a series focused on arts education outside formal institutions.

Times vary daily; check listings for specific times at each venue. Events run from 6pm to midnight depending on capacity, with note that traffic congestion around Cadzow Street is frequent during peak hours, especially on weekend evenings when bus service drops off. Check official sources for details including access via M74 or stops near Hamilton Bus Station.
