What's on in Shepton Mallet?

9th Feb 2023 | Local News
Good morning, and welcome to your weekly what's on in Shepton Mallet.
Every Thursday we round up all the eye-catching events in your area over the weekend, and into the week beyond.
The Bath and West Showground is the Shepton Mallet Nub News What's On sponsor. Without community-minded partners like the Bath and West Showground we would not be able to produce the locally-relevant, clickbait-free news to the people of Shepton Mallet.
Read on for not to be missed outings this week, and remember, you can add your FREE event using the Nub It button!
