G Live has announced the launch of Connect at G Live, a refreshed community initiative designed to bring people, creativity and connection together, with a free Open Day taking place on Saturday 31 January 2026.
The Connect at G Live – Open Day will welcome visitors of all ages to explore the venue, participate in a wide range of creative activities and gain insight into the work that takes place both on stage and behind the scenes. The event aims to position G Live as a central cultural and community hub within Guildford.

Visitors will have the opportunity to take part in arts and crafts sessions, DJ workshops and inclusive family singing workshops, as well as enjoy face painting, a photo booth, balloon modelling and a selection of large-scale games. The programme also includes pop-up fitness classes delivered by ((BOUNCE)), the global, multi award-winning mini trampoline fitness brand, alongside backstage tours offering a rare behind the-scenes view of the venue. In addition, a number of local businesses and charities will be present throughout the day, showcasing community initiatives.
The Open Day, along with all workshops, are completely free to attend and designed to encourage community engagement, creativity and participation, offering an accessible and welcoming introduction to G Live and its new Connect initiative. Members of the public are invited to attend and discover the opportunities available through Connect at G Live, celebrating culture, creativity and community in the heart of Guildford.
