Wondering what to do this weekend? Dorchester Nub News has you covered.

We've picked three events happening in and around the town this weekend for you to enjoy:

Friday: Tolpuddle Martyrs' Festival

Thousnads are expected to join the Tolpuddle Martyrs' Festival this weekend to commemorate the six men who formed a trade union in the 1830s, leading to the foundation of modern-day trade unionism. There's a great line-up, including Billy Bragg.

Saturday: Tony Lowe

Known locally as 'Mr. Velvet Voice', Tony Lowe will be back entertaining audiences in Dorchester. The swing singer will be performing at Dorchester's Borough Gardens on Saturday afternoon, a perfect opportunity for a picnic in the park.

Sunday: Coffee concert

Take a break on Sunday, sit back, relax and enjoy the coffee concert at St Peter's Church. Listen to a short recital of songs presented by Flora Davies before tucking into coffee and cake.

You can add your events and find more on our What's On page.
