What’s On In Bournemouth

Update 3 November 2020

With winter just around the corner and where safe to do so, in line with Government advice, wrap up warm, get outside and make the most of our open spaces, countryside and beaches. Unfortunately, in keeping with the latest Government guidelines, our favourite attractions are now closed. Our websites will however be updated as and when we receive news in early December, don’t forget to check back then.
