There are a number of festivals to enjoy, including the Bridport Literary Festival, the Bridport Food Festival, the annual Hat Festival and the Christmas Tree Festival. There s also an annual carnival that includes a car boot sale, a fete, a funfair and an evening of live music. A torchlight procession takes place the next day, when 1,500 torches are carried over two miles to light a bonfire in West Bay.
Part of the idyllic Jurassic Coast, the local area is packed with beautiful walks and rambles. In the town itself, you ll also find a football club, a rugby union club and Bridport & West Dorset Golf Club, which includes an 18 hole links golf course, a driving range and a pitch and putt course.
