As you plan your week, you'll find a varied selection of things to do in Luton. Your choices include cultural experiences, social activities, and local entertainment. You could catch a stand-up comedy show or delve into Luton’s history, starting as a sixth-century Saxon settlement on the River Lea. This week, you can explore Luton's past with several heritage options. Attend talks detailing the town’s story through the ages, showing its growth from a settlement recorded in the Domesday Book to an industrial centre. Alternatively, take a guided tour of Wardown House Museum, gaining insight into the historical collections. Consider how the town’s identity shifted from hat making to car manufacturing, and now to a service-based economy centred around London Luton Airport. It’s a great way to connect with the borough's story. For more active pursuits, consider televised football action, using rail links via Luton Airport Parkway railway station or Thameslink. If you enjoy live music, there’s a pop-punk tribute night available. You might also try a line dancing event, or a stand-up comedy performance.
