Lyme Regis - The Pearl Of Dorset - 2017

WHAT’S ON?
There’s never a dull moment in Lyme
Regis, with a busy calendar of events
helping you to make the most of your
precious time in the Pearl of Dorset.
We’ve got every interest covered, from
music, food and art, through to sport,
fossils and family fun, and pretty much
everything else in between.
The Lyme Lunge fancy dress swim
kick-starts the year, the Fossil Festival
in April celebrates the world-famous
Jurassic Coast, and May’s Jazz and
Blues Festival and the Busking Festival
showcase the best of live music.
Lifeboat Week and Regatta and
Carnival are the highlights of the
summer, notforgetting the Guitars
on the Beach world record attempt,
the mouthwatering delights of Food
Rocks, and the big names of Lyme Folk
Weekend.
The active can take on the Royal British
Legion Poppy Run in June, the inaugural
Lyme Regis Triathlon, or the Lyme
Splash open water sea swim, both in
September. Or just watch from the
shore as competitors battle it out in the
gig and sailing regattas in the bay.
A breathtaking fireworks display and
beach bonfire in November leads into
the festive period when we have a
spectacular Christmas lights’ display,
the enchanting Christmas Tree Festival
and the wacky Christmas Pudding Race.
