Chorley Live 2025: Everything you need to know!
Chorley Live 2025 – A Weekend of Music and Entertainment in Chorley Town Centre
Get ready, Chorley – one of the town’s biggest weekends of the year is back! Chorley Live 2025 returns on Friday 3rd and Saturday 4th October 2025, bringing two nights packed full of live music, entertainment, and community spirit.
Across the town centre, more than 280 performances will take place in 35+ venues – from cosy cafés and traditional pubs to churches, bars and outdoor stages. Whether you’re into rock bands, soulful singers, upbeat choirs or something completely different, you’ll find it all at Chorley Live.
How Chorley Live Works
Performances run at 7pm, 8pm, 9pm and 10pm, each lasting 45 minutes with a 15-minute changeover. That means you can wander from venue to venue, catching a whole variety of acts throughout the evening.
To access the festival, you’ll need a wristband, priced at just £6. This gives you entry into every participating venue across both nights – incredible value for the sheer amount of live entertainment on offer.
Under 12s go free (although some venues have age restrictions due to licensing).
Wristbands are available from Ebb & Flo Bookshop on St Thomas’s Road, from participating venues, or direct from some of the acts themselves.
Official Chorley Live 2025 Venues
The town will come alive with music across more than 35 official venues, including:
The Flat Iron
