🗓️ Monthly ceilidh dancing
Local ceilidh band Arish Mel holds regular, monthly barn dance nights in Kimmeridge village hall.
No experience is necessary – the caller tells you what to do – and you don’t need a partner. Just turn up on your own or with friends and pay on the door.
There’s no bar, but you’re welcome to bring your own drinks and nibbles.
- Venue: Kimmeridge village hall at The Etches Collection
- Start time: 7.30pm
- Adult: £7.50
