We try to have a variety of organised events at The Swan from the traditional quizzes, markets and live music to different and interesting ones such as creative drawing, illusionists and coffee mornings. With our on-site school also organising events such as Epic Thursdays and the Winter Fayres, there is always something going on at The Swan.

Our calendar of forthcoming events is presented below. We have a dedicated page for our Kitchen Takeovers. You may also want to look at our Special Events. We also have comprehensive Diaries showing what has been happening since we re-opened in 2019.

We also have a Fantasy Football league which you can do from the comfort of you own home! It's into the international break ... why not see how things are going?

Fancy dress, singing, dancing and generally joining in encouraged but not compulsory! It's free, but limited seating so book your place now to avoid disappointment!

30th Nov: Santa's Jolly Jaunt

Heralding the start of the festive month, our first, inclusive collaboration between three of The Swan's most popular clubs has come to fruition, with Santa's Jolly Jaunt on the morning of Saturday 30th November. Ardent walker Mirella will lead a gentle 4-5K walk, whilst the Windsor Town Funrunners have devised a running route suitable for all abilities. And the Windsor Cycle Hub will be guiding a 'bonus' Level 1 Easy Ride on their 5th Saturday! There's a minimum donation of £5 to take part, all of which goes directly to the Friends of The Swan Renovation Fund, and will be used to help fund the much-needed refurbishment of the pub frontage in the Spring. The walk and run will set of at 10.30am and the guided ride at 11am, with the aim that we'll all return around an hour or so later to mix and mingle in the bar, with Micky’s Sat Kitchen open for you to purchase some post activity sustenance and libation!

To take part in the guided ride you MUST pre-book with Windsor Cycle Hub Click the 'Book a Guided Ride' button and enter 30/11/2024 as the date you are coming.

To take part in the walk or the run, you can just turn up and register on the day, but to give us an idea of numbers it would be helpful if you could e-mail Trudy on trudy.lowe@theswanwindsor.co.uk if you plan to come along.

Either way, you can make your donation with cash or card on the day.

30th Nov: Ukuoke

The Windsor Ukuele will be providing their own brand of Karaoke. Given their previous performances, this is bound to an absolute hoot and really popular. More details to follow shortly.

31st Dec: Hogmanay / New Year's Eve

It hardly feels possible its only a few weeks to go before we'll once again be seeing in the New Year down at The Swan! It's free entry, and we'll be open all evening until 12.30am, with the prosecco flowing and another Directors' kitchen takeover to soak it all up – what will it be this year? Keep your eyes peeled over the coming weeks to find out!

We are extremely proud to announce that we have been chosen as the Winner of the 'Best Community Pub' category at the Great British Pub Awards 2024! The award was announced this week at a gala ceremony in Manchester, heralded as the Oscars of the pub industry where pubs from across Britain compete for one of the industry's most sought after accolades. It was presented live on stage to The Swan General Manager, Micky Foden-Andrews. The ceremony was live streamed to the pub, where a huge cheer went up as The Swan was announced as the winner, leading to an evening of jubilant celebration.

To get more information, please visit our Great British Pub Award 2024 page and also our September Event Diary page to see what happened on Tuesday 17th.

We keep a wee diary of our events. It is split by year and we also are adding 'look-up' by event type (e.g. quiz nights). We include photos, videos and a little description of what it was all about. We will continue to grow this as the pub matures. Just click on the photo below to be see all the events, feel the atmosphere and enjoy the fun we have had at The Swan since re-opening as a community pub.

Did you attend of our events? If you have any photos or feedback, we would appreciate if you would share on our social media sites. Thanks in advance. We really want to build a good history of The Swan going forward. Suggestions, photos and stories are most welcome.

Parlez-vous Francais? If that’s a resounding 'non', then why not learn with Mirella! Friend of The Swan and mother-tongue French speaker, Mirella will be holding the first of her conversational French classes from 2 - 3pm twice a month in the bar (see above for dates). A gentle introduction to learning the language in a friendly environment - maybe with a vin rouge while you’re at it! Open to all and completely free to attend – although a collection tin will be available if you wish to contribute a few pennies to the Renovation Fund to thank Mirella.

New to The Swan, The Windsor Town Funrunners will be meeting in the Courtyard on Wednesdays at 6.45pm for a 5km, circular run in the local area. Finish back at the pub for a well-deserved drink if you wish! The group very much shares The Swan's values and welcomes everyone – those tentatively trying a slow 5km for the first time as much as those aiming for personal bests, with staggered start times if necessary so everyone finishes together, approx 7.30pm.

There is storage space provided for leaving clothes, etc. whilst running. No need to book, just turn up and ask for Grant and Tom. WTF (yes, it's deliberate!) ... why not give it a go?!

Our friends at Maidenhead United would love you to join them on their Windsor Wellness Walk. Setting off from Windsor Leisure Centre carpark at 10.30am, the walk returns to The Swan for refreshments at around 12 noon - what's not to love! The charity is aimed at building emotional resilience within our community, providing opportunities for participation in sports and other healthy activities, and leeping our community connected.
