Thank you!
The autumn 2009 schedule has seen four consecutive capacity sell-outs, which, after last year’s difficulties, surpassed all our hopes. We thank you for helping to put Bluesnights back on a sound footing – a trend, which we hope, will continue throughout next year.

Bluesnights
Well, what a great season we've had!
Thanks to all of you who came out month after month and supported our efforts to keep blues alive and live in Dorset. It truly has been our most successful season. All of our featured artists have been amongst the very best playing nationally and internationally and this has brought many new audience members to Bluesnights at the Dorchester Arts Centre.
We'll be back again with a new line-up of exciting blues artists for the next Bluesnight's season commencing in September 2010. Meanwhile, we wish you a great summer - take care and enjoy!
