Planet Purbeck Festival

🗓️ Friday 15th – Sunday 24th September 2023

Enjoy ten days of family-friendly events & entertainment that focus on Purbeck’s coastal and countryside environment, including live music, arts, film, talks, local food & produce stalls, wellbeing workshops and kids’ fun activities.

This community-run festival celebrates the natural world of the Isle of Purbeck, promoting sustainable initiatives, tackling climate change at a local level to enhance & protect the area’s biodiversity.

The festival is also a great way to find out what local initiatives you can get involved in and a way of meeting like-minded people.

Outside of the festival, Planet Purbeck also holds regular events throughout the year and encourages anyone to get involved and support the movement.

For full festival information, what’s on & when, and all the latest festival news visit the Planet Purbeck website.

Festival Fair

A hub of information, fun and games by the seaside

The festival’s annual fair showcases a range of various groups and organisations all doing their bit to look after Swanage and Purbeck – all of which you can either support or get actively involved in.

Browse the stalls, play some games, try out a new activity and relax to some live music whilst enjoying locally-produced food – all in the beautiful setting of Swanage’s promenade with views across the bay.

Here are some highlights from 2023:
