The team behind the Discover Frome website has put together a helpful guide for 2025, showcasing the events in store this year, from hyper-local celebrations to national campaigns.
The annual events guide is designed to allow you to plan for the months ahead, get important dates in your diaries and see what Frome has in store.
Cllr Mark Dorrington said, “Frome is lucky to have a wealth of creative and committed organisations, groups and communities who put on a host of fantastic events throughout the year. If you’re looking to get organised, this guide will give you a good idea of what is coming up for Frome in 2025, so get your family and friends involved and let’s have a great year.”
The guide includes the ever-popular Donate IT tech amnesty event in early February. Last January’s event saw 500 devices handed in to be wiped, refurbished and given a new lease of life. February also heralds the lighting of the Valentine’s Lamp on the 14th, with this year’s lamp-lighting ceremony signalling the changeover from the lamp’s creator and renovator Reg Ling to the new lamplighter Eddie Young. Reg Ling has led the romantic ceremony since 1993. “This well-loved Frome tradition should be one for your diaries,” says Cllr Dorrington.
The town puts on many a festival over the year from the Kindness Festival in March, hosted by The Good Heart, to the Walking Festival later in the year, to the vast programme of events at July’s Frome Festival.
Great Big Green Week, in June, encourages organisations big and small to support sustainability and tackle climate change, with events for all the family to get involved in. Later in the year, expect festive magic with Frome’s Christmas lights switch on and Lantern Parade, a firm favourite with the community.
The full events guide for 2025 can be found on Discover Frome’s website, with more events uploaded throughout the months. You can also check Discover Frome’s Facebook and Instagram pages for more information.
