Festive singing in the Borough Gardens returns in December – a date for your diary!

Dorchester Town Council have announced that Carols in the Borough Gardens, one of the town’s favourite Christmas traditions, returns in December.

Taking place on Thursday 18 December and organised by the Friends of the Borough Gardens and the Town Council with the support of Keep 106, the Carols are for everyone to join in, with music from Dorchester’s own band – the Durnovaria Silver Band, accompanied by the Encore Singers.

The music starts at 6.30 and goes on for about an hour – and it’s free!

All are welcome to add to the atmosphere by bringing their own home-made lantern. Carol books will be provided. Arrive from 6pm to enjoy a warming beverage and some delicious baked goods from Bees Knees Bakes.

Please note that in case of very bad weather the event may be cancelled so keep an eye on the Borough Gardens Facebook page for information.
