About The City Brief Lytham st Anne's
Your Personal Newsletter For All Local Events in Lytham st Anne's
The City Brief keeps people across Lytham St Annes informed about what's happening in their neighbourhoods and around town each week. Whether you live in Lytham, regularly visit St Annes-on-the-Sea, or spend time around the Lake and its RSPB Visitor Centre, there’s always something to know. Our weekly coverage means you won't miss local events, from the annual Lytham Festival to smaller community gatherings, promenade concerts, and seasonal celebrations. We track what's on across the town: the Christmas Markets, the Wartime Re-enactment Festival, St Annes Carnival, and the Ribble River Festival. We also keep you updated on recurring entertainment, theatre productions, and cultural programmes that shape life here. Lytham St Annes has a busy events calendar centred around landmarks like Lytham Green, St Annes Pier, and the Lytham War Memorial Gardens. These spaces host everything from major tournaments to local fetes. The town’s character comes alive through its recurring programmes, whether that’s the Soul & Motown Extravaganza, kite flying events at St Annes Beach, or the Open Championship at Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club. We believe that staying connected to what’s happening locally, the festivals, markets, concerts, and community events, is essential to feeling part of your neighbourhood. That’s why we curate and publish local event information every week, helping residents, visitors, and commuters plan ahead and discover opportunities to engage with the town. From the quieter corners of Ansdell to the seafront attractions, from family activities to specialist interests, The City Brief keeps you up to date on Lytham St Annes.
