Celebrate 2026

Next year, we will be celebrating 40 years since the Bridport community came together to raise the money to purchase Allington Hill. In true Hillbilly style, we will once again be bringing the community together. We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of people willing to give up their time in organising events and activities for all ages, from February, until our planned Country Fair on Sat 2nd of May 2026. 

The Country fair will include stalls, speakers marquee, craft demonstrations and activities. We are inviting providers, stall holders, speakers, local musicians to email us giving some information on what you could provide for the festival, either on Friday, Saturday or both. In the coming months you will be able to reserve stall pitches, for a small fee. The speakers marquee, seems a very popular idea. I have already received two bookings. The 20 minutes slots will be on the hour and half hour, with a 10 minute change over period. Slots will be free of charge unless you are selling promotional material after your talk. You can reserve your slot now. to register an interest in taking part either on Friday and or Saturday, email allingtonhill@gmail.com.

Please see our planned schedule of events below. We are working closely with Bridport Town Council and Bridport Tourist information, who are supporting us with their knowledge and the logistics of holding multiple events. If you would like to get involved with any of our events please contact allingtonhill@gamil.com.
