Douglas Dare

Tickets

Douglas Dare returns to Bridport Arts Centre, following his acclaimed performance last year.

This special event is part of BAC’s festival celebrating and championing LGBT+ stories from Bridport and beyond. As a proud queer artist from the town, Douglas brings his distinctive sound and heartfelt storytelling back to his roots for an evening of music that promises to be both powerful and deeply personal.

“Growing up in the quiet of rural West Dorset gave me a deep sense of self-reflection, but it was moving to London—vibrant, loud, and full of possibility—that allowed me to fully embrace and celebrate my queerness. Returning home with that sense of freedom feels both like a privilege and a celebration—a way to share all the parts of myself with the place that shaped me.”
