12 Things To Do In Oxford: March 2024

Posted February 29, 2024

Spring is in the air! As we welcome the blooming flowers and look forward to warmer weather, the change of season brings with it a great selection of indie events across Oxfordshire this month.

Here’s Independent Oxford’s twelve top tips for things to do in Oxfordshire this March. >>

DIVINE SCHISM: THE UMBRELLAS

The Umbrellas are back and are playing at Common Ground.

The Umbrellas are four renegade romantics crafting irresistible indie pop hymns. The band’s self-titled 2021 debut album became a breakout moment, winning critical praise and sparking an international tour. Follow-up LP ‘Fairweather Friend’ goes a step further – absorbing the sonic attack of their live shows, it balances this with studio finesse. A lean 10 track affair, it grasps towards beatific pop while fuelled by a sense of risk, and the precision that comes from long months on the road.

I’m really passionate about Independent Oxford and supporting and promoting independent businesses in Oxfordshire. Indie businesses are the life blood of our towns, cities and communities, but they need support to survive and thrive. Creating a network that provides a space for indies to find peer support, knowledge and information is so important, and means businesses are far more likely to continue. Supporting indies means a stronger local economy and a closer, inclusive community for all.
