Summer Lates at the Roman Baths: New After-Hours Music Beside the Great Bath
21 July – 31 August
This summer, The Roman Baths will open after hours with the launch of Summer Lates, a six-week programme of evening openings from 21 July to 31 August. Visitors are invited to explore the historic site in a new light—literally—with torchlit ambience, a pop-up bar, and a relaxed, atmospheric setting every night of the week. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings, a new specially curated programme of live music and DJ sets will add to the unforgettable experience.
Two thousand years ago, The Roman Baths was a vibrant social and cultural hub. Summer Lates revives that spirit, inviting today’s visitors to unwind and connect in the same space where Romans once gathered. From Monday to Thursday, the site will remain open until 8pm, while on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and the August Bank Holiday Monday, it will stay open until 10pm.
As dusk falls, the Great Bath will be illuminated by soft torchlight, creating a magical setting for evening exploration. Visitors can enjoy a drink from the bath-side bar or explore the site’s rich history with new evening guided tours.
Weekend evening music sessions take place beside the steaming waters of the Great Bath, offering a unique and immersive way to experience one of Britain’s most iconic landmarks. Rather than formal concerts, the performances are designed to complement the historic surroundings—subtle, ambient, and deeply atmospheric.
