Every Beachcombers event, in one place
Abbotsbury doesn't do quiet. Click any event for the full story.
Abbotsbury Horticultural Show
Jams, chutneys, cakes, flowers and, above all, an entirely earnest competition for the biggest vegetables in the village. A proper old-fashioned village show.
Boxing Day Bonanza
A cosy get together at the Swan the day after Christmas, a good excuse to get out of the house, see everyone you missed over the holidays, and warm up by the fire.
New Year Party at the Swan Inn
Live music, fancy dress dancing, and a midnight countdown with your neighbours. The Beachcombers' way of seeing out the old year and welcoming the new one.
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.
Band Night at the Swan
Energetic performances from a popular local band, a packed pub, and a great excuse to kick off the season with some proper live music.
Beachcombers Skittles Tournament
Teams, tactics, and considerably more competitiveness than a pub skittles alley should really allow. All welcome, no experience necessary.
Abbotsbury Fireworks Night
One of Dorset's most loved community fireworks displays, and we're going all out this year to make it the best fireworks night near Weymouth. Hundreds of you turn up every year from Weymouth, Dorchester and Bridport, and we intend to earn it.
Abbotsbury Beachcombers' Village Fête
Vintage vehicles, a dog show, craft stalls, kids activities, and more cake than is strictly necessary. Our annual summer gathering for the whole village and beyond.
Beachcombers Quiz Nights
Halloween quiz, St George’s Day quiz, and whatever else we can pin a theme to. Bring a team or get adopted by one on the night.
