This year Weymouth and Portland’s Parks and Gardens have some really exciting events planned from music to art to teddy bear’s picnics – there is something for everyone to enjoy! As most of these events are free, the whole family can come and enjoy a cheap and fun day out.

There are 10 parks and gardens across Weymouth and Portland so what better way to discover these beautiful spaces than to get involved in a variety of community events that run right through from June to December.

Councillor Kate Wheller, Briefholder for Community Facilities at Weymouth and Portland Borough Council, said: “It will be lovely to see people of all ages getting outdoors and enjoying our beautiful parks and gardens. With such a fantastic range of events, people of Weymouth and Portland will be spoilt for choice!

“The wide and cultured programme of activities that includes art exhibitions, park runs, charity events and musical entertainment will give people the opportunity to enjoy some outdoor fun as well as the chance to get involved in something new.”
