Beachcombers Bingo Night
Lively, welcoming, and downright entertaining. Our bingo nights at the Swan Inn are now a local tradition, and they're a lot funnier than bingo has any right to be.
Beachcombers Bingo Nights are relaxed, inclusive, and packed with laughs, run at the Swan Inn with brilliant callers keeping the energy up all evening. First timers are always welcome (and quickly initiated), it's open to all ages, though you do need to be 18+ to play for prizes.
Prizes vary by theme, Easter treats one night, Christmas hampers the next, plus raffles and bonus games throughout. There's homemade cakes and hot drinks to keep you going, and it's now firmly a local tradition, pulling in regulars from Weymouth, Bridport and Dorchester as well as the village itself.
No booking needed, just turn up. Every ticket sold supports local charities and community projects.
