Note: Any updates made will be to the event page on the website
The booking site for the Dorchester-on-Thames coronation party on Sunday 7th May is now open to take your orders for places at our long party table in Queen St. Your tickets also get you tea and cup cakes with the modest booking fee going to support youth groups in the village. Of course you can bring your own picnic and drinks but our booking site also offers sandwiches and more exotic cakes if you’d rather we did the hard work for you. And finally you can pre-book BBQ food and order your coronation mug (please note those lucky enough to be under 16 will be getting a free small mug from the Parish Council). So, everything you need for a grand day out. Click here to join the party:
