The Malverns in Autumn ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿงฃ๐Ÿงฆ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฅง

With this blustery weather itโ€™s time to celebrate the beauty of mother natureโ€™s last hurrah before winter

Plan an autumnal break to The Malverns to get the best seat in the house for all the wonders that Autumn brings

Harvest festivals, blustery walks followed by hot chocolate, town centres tentatively putting out Halloween and Christmas decorations (too early? Never heard of herโ€ฆ)

As an area deeply connected to its plentiful produce the harvest season has a certain magic in The Malverns.
Apples, grapes and pears are harvested, juiced, fermented and turned into pies, yellow wheat is chopped and dried and hops are hung ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒพ

Or just curl up under a blanketโ€ฆ and enjoy the view!

Introducing Malvern Skyline Productions and Playwrite Rachel Tobin ๐Ÿชถ๐ŸŽญ๐Ÿ“œ

Around every corner in The Malverns, thereโ€™s a story - and Rachel brings them to life.

With the help of local history groups, conversations with residents, a brilliant pool of local actors and multiple incredible arts venues, The Malverns is the perfect creative ground for new theatre.

Rachelโ€™s first play focussed on the famous Castlemorton Common Rave in 1992 and the reactions of ravers and residents โ€“ ask your older relatives if you want to know more about 1990s rave culture! โ€Žโ€Ž๐Ÿชฉ๐Ÿ›ธ

After the success of Rachelโ€™s first play she realised The Malverns was bursting with stories that deserved to be told
Covering The Malverns history from scientists who flocked here during WWII to create groundbreaking technology like RADAR and touch screens ๐Ÿ“ก

To Dame Laura Knight, the first woman ever elected to full membership of the Royal Academy, who spent much of her later life in The Malverns painting its scenery.

There are so many incredible stories from The Malverns and, with creative venues like The Coach House Theatre, Malvern Theatres, The Firs, Malvern Cube Community Arts Centre, Regal Tenbury Wells and many more, itโ€™s so easy to hear them ๐Ÿ›๏ธ

So many of the stories from The Malverns, contain themes of residents, visitors, art and discovery all rooted in this wonderful place and brought alive by the people who tell them

Why not get involved in community arts on your next visit, or engage in some of The Malverns local stories?

And who knowsโ€ฆ maybe you will become a character in the stories hidden around every corner of The Malverns! ๐Ÿซต

Performances of Rachels new play Storm Over Our Town are on Saturday 3 Oct Sunday 4 Oct find out more on our events page (linked in bio or www.visitthemalverns.org/events)

Introducing the Words Smallest Theatre โ€งโ‚Šหšโœง๐ŸŽญโœงหšโ‚Šโ€ง

Here is Dibah, one of the volunteers at the Theatre of Small Convenience, to show you around our very own record-breaking theatre.

The Theatre of Small Convenience was originally opened in 1999 by Dennis Neil who used his love of performance and puppetry to create a magical experience.

The theatre was awarded the official title of Worldโ€™s Smallest Theatre shortly after opening by the Guiness Book of Records.

Dennis ran the theatre successfully for 18 years before stepping down in 2017 due to his health and a desire to focus on other projects.

After Dennisโ€™s departure the building fell into disrepair which was compounded by a fire.

However, after crowdfunding ยฃ17,000, a group came together to restore and reopen the theatre.

Since reopening in October 2025, the theatre has hosted puppetry, weddings and even storytelling with a giant worm ๐Ÿชฑ

We spoke to Dibah as part of our new series, helping you get to know the people, places and values that make up The Malverns.

The theatre is such a great example of what happens when community arts and tourism combine to make something beautiful

The Malverns wouldnโ€™t be the place it is without the brilliant people, creative ideas, and innovative businesses that keep it thriving

We wanted to give you an idea of what to expect from your visit, but also introduce you to those who live and work here and who participate in the tourism economy

We hope that when you come to The Malverns, you donโ€™t just visit but you become part of our place - supporting local businesses, getting to know communities, preserving our heritage and being kind to our natural environment

We are The Malverns โ€“ and you could be too! Come and join us and be a part of what makes The Malverns magical

The Eclipse in The Malverns ๐ŸŒ™

So many beautiful images of the eclipse across The Malverns, from the top of the Malvern hills to Tenbury Wells and across the countryside

We were reminded, in the face of such celestial and natural beauty, that the fact we are experiencing it together is almost the most special thing ๐Ÿ’›

Everything you need to know about the solar eclipse in The Malverns ๐ŸŒ‘๐ŸŒ’๐ŸŒ“๐ŸŒ”๐ŸŒ•

๐Ÿ“… When is the eclipse?

In The Malverns, the eclipse is on Wednesday 12 August from around 18:20 to 20:10. Maximum coverage of the sun will take place at about 19:10 but exact times will vary by location.

๐Ÿฆบ How do I watch the eclipse safely?

Remember to NEVER look directly at the sun with the naked eye - even if it is partially eclipsed, you could permanently damage your eyes. Use special viewing glasses or create a pinhole camera.

๐Ÿ“ Where are the best places to see the eclipse?

Anywhere you can usually see the sunset. At this time of year the sun sets northwest in the sky which is behind the hills in Great Malvern.

Head northwest to Malvern Link or West Malvern, or onto the Malvern Hills for a guaranteed view of the sun.

In Tenbury Wells Kyre Park would be a lovely setting to see the eclipse and from and in Upton upon Severn the bridge maybe a good high point.

๐Ÿ”ญ Are there any more celestial events coming up soon?

If you love stargazing head to one of our dark sky spots in The Malverns on the 12 & 13 August to see the peak nights of the Perseids meteor shower ๐ŸŒŒ

Where are you planning to watch from? Let us know in the comments ๐Ÿ’ฌ
