The Bard Of Dorchester

Join us for a lively afternoon of storytelling, poetry and performance as six finalists compete for the title of Bard of Caer Dur / Dorchester 2025. Inspired by Dorset’s rich literary heritage and living landscape, each performer brings their own voice, tradition and tale to the stage. Expect wit, wonder, and local pride in abundance.

Hosted by Molly Dunne, current Bard of Dorchester, and Peter Roe, Grand Bard of Dorset, the event will also include guest performances, refreshments, and the ceremonial passing of the Bardic staff. Come celebrate the spoken word and cheer on the next voice of Dorchester!
