Dorchester is getting ready to swap shopping bags for cowboy boots.
Brewery Square will host a full day of country music, line dancing, and live entertainment on September 19 from 1pm to 9pm as part of a free event open to all.
The event will feature three live country music acts, a professional line dancing display, and a beginners’ class for those keen to join in the fun.
A spokesman for Brewery Square said: "We can't wait for this one.
"Dorchester's never seen anything quite like it.
"I keep telling the team, this is the day I'm finally learning to line dance properly, no more hiding at the back.
"We just wanted to give people a proper reason to let their hair down together, put the phones away for a bit and enjoy something a little different.
"Bring your mates, grab a drink and come and make some memories with us."
The day will kick off at 1pm with a professional line dancing performance, followed by a beginners’ class.
From 2.15pm, Deadwood & Whiskey will take the stage with two hours of live country music.
At 4.30pm, Zach Bryan Tribute UK will perform.
The event will wrap up with a two-hour headline set from The Wild Hearts, starting at 5.30pm.
Visitors are encouraged to book tables at Brewery Square’s restaurants or enjoy the entertainment from the square itself.
The spokesman said: "We just wanted to give people a proper reason to let their hair down together, put the phones away for a bit and enjoy something a little different.
"Bring your mates, grab a drink and come and make some memories with us."
The event promises to be a highlight of Dorchester’s autumn calendar, drawing visitors from across Dorset and further afield.
