  • Dorset One World Festival

Dorset One World Festival is back once again to celebrate the diversity of cultures in Dorset through world music, dance, food, and activities.

This free event will be held on Saturday 10th August from 11am-4pm at Dorchester’s Borough Gardens and will feature a programme of traditional and modern music involving our local communities. Come and marvel to the beautiful sounds of the sitar, listen to wonderful traditional songs from Ukraine, enjoy the sounds of traditional Syrian and Kurdish song, and get your dancing shoes on with We Afro Tallawah who will be providing funky reggae tunes and the smoothest musical delights.

The Global Food Village will offer a wide selection of fresh food and drinks from around the world. Come and taste some incredible cuisine, from Tibetan dumplings and Middle Eastern falafel to mouthwatering Thai food. If you have a sweet tooth, there will be treats available including delicious Italian ice-cream and freshly cooked churros.

As well as music and food, the event will feature a wide range of stalls and additional activities to get involved with, including an African drumming session, henna painting, and fermentation workshops.
Children will also be well catered for, with a bouncy castle and arts and crafts workshops.
