This week 10 years ago, Phil Say signed the Weymouth Pavilion lease followed by officially opening a week later on the 13th July. When the doors opened 10 years ago, Phil, Lou and the team started from scratch. They had no computers, no booking system, no phones and no shows. We’re all immensely proud of how far the Pavilion has come since. We’ve seen in excess of 2 million visitors! We have a diverse and busy programme all year-round, with ‘Something for Everyone’ and we have regular weddings and events in our function rooms.
We would like to say a massive thank you to the community for your support, whether you’ve visited to see us for a coffee and a chat, see a show or volunteer, we couldn’t do it without you. Here’s to another decade!
Our Wedding and Events Showcase was a success, here’s what you missed!
On the 20th May 2023, we opened our doors to showcase our function rooms and present them as we would for an event or wedding. Our Events Manager Julie Storey loved meeting everyone and took pleasure in showing guests around the venue.
We’d like to say a massive thank you to Dan Roads for the stunning photographs, Perfect Day Wedding Services for the room dressing, chair covers and table decoration, Wedding Time for the wedding dress and accessories, Blossom Dream Cakes for the stunning cake, the wonderful pianist Alistair Dean and not forgetting our models:
⭐Katie Janes as our bridal model
⭐Jake Mould as our groom
⭐Jamie Selwood as our groom
And lastly, our Box Office superstar who stepped in as our model groom with Katie Janes! Is there anything he can’t do!?
Weymouth Pavilion can cater for any event of any scale in any of our five function rooms, you can even hire the entire venue! To find out more or arrange a visit email Julie Storey events@weymouthpavilion.com or call 01305 780909

Seven Drunken Nights – The Story of the Dubliners (17th May 2023)
In partnership with Tourism Ireland and in association with legendary Irish pub O’Donoghue’s, Seven Drunken Nights tells the story of a career spanning 50 years and invokes the spirit of Ronnie Drew, Luke Kelly, Barney McKenna, John Sheahan, Ciaran Bourke and Jim McCann.
This hugely talented cast of musicians and singers brings the music of this iconic group back to life and will have you singing and dancing in the aisles.
It is without a doubt the ultimate feel-good Irish show.
Fairytale of New York – Coming Home For Christmas (8th November 2023)
Direct from the West End and after two sell-out tours, the ultimate feel-good Irish-inspired Christmas show is back with an even bigger production for 2023.
From the producers of Seven Drunken Nights-The Story of The Dubliners and featuring an international cast of singers, musicians and dancers Fairytale of New York brings you all of your favourite Christmas songs including Driving home for Christmas, White Christmas, Oh Holy Night, Winter’s Tale, Silent Night and of course The Fairytale of New York.
……and just when you think the party couldn’t get any better, this world-class show also features some of the greatest Irish sing-a-long songs of all time including The Galway Girl, The Irish Rover, Danny Boy, Dirty Old Town and The Black Velvet Band this magical Irish-inspired Christmas show will have people of all ages singing, laughing and dancing in the aisles.
Rhythm of the Dance has brought audiences around the world to their feet for over two decades and is returning with a brand new production.
Rooted in Ireland’s rich culture and heritage, the show takes a different perspective on all things Irish. Featuring world-class live musicians, vocalists and champion dancers, the show will be a completely immersive experience.
Join us on a journey through Ireland’s history from the ancient, rich in legend and myth, to the modern, urban Ireland that we see today, bursting at the seams, now more than ever with talent.
Rhythm of the Dance is an array of everything Irish dance has evolved into, from its roots in ‘Sean Nos’ (meaning old-style), to the militant, clean, modern style we see on stage today. With lyrical and contemporary influences, it will be Irish in essence, with a new edge and promises to be an exploration of how far you can push the boundaries of Irish dance.

Unfortunately once again someone has set up a fake Weymouth Pavilion Facebook Account and are targeting people that have entered our competitions. The fake profile is contacting entrants and telling them they’ve won tickets, followed by requesting bank details. Weymouth Pavilion will NEVER ask for bank details on Facebook, we always ask winners to contact the Box Office directly via our booking line 01305 783 225. The fake Facebook page is very convincing but there are a few clues:• We have over 16,000 followers, this page has 1.• Scroll down on our page and you will see we have posts going back years, the fake profile’s posts are all recently added.• Look at the link at the top of the FB page, our official link is facebook.com/weymouthpavilion We do have a Sleeping Beauty competition due to end today (15.12.22), we will contact the winner this afternoon and ask the winner to call the Box Office on 01305 783 225. If you are ever unsure if a message is genuine, please contact the Box Office on 01305 783 225.If you are contacted by a fake Weymouth Pavilion page please report it to Facebook immediately and block the user. Here are some screenshots of the fake profile:
