Inside Out Dorset 2025

Inside Out Dorset festival is back!
Add the dates to your diary: 12-21 September 2025.

We bring live performance to unexpected places – town centres, village squares, beaches and hilltops – for everyone to enjoy.

We celebrate Dorset and aim to promote our natural landscape and sense of place. Some of Dorset’s most remarkable urban and rural spots are transformed with experiences that touch hearts and minds like nothing else.

At the heart of what we do is our belief that the performing arts should be accessible for all – no matter what your experience or background. Therefore, all of Inside Out Dorset is free to attend.
