The Great Torquay Saturday Night Out at Torre Abbey Museum

Local history isn’t just about the great and the good. It’s about who we are, how we got here, and what matters to us as local residents. We’re all part of our community and for generations local folk have enjoyed.

At ‘The Great Torquay Night Out’. Dr Kevin Dixon takes you on a journey from Torre to the Strand visiting those pubs and clubs that we remember from our younger days – many of which we have lost! This is the story of how Torquay grew as a tourist town.

You are welcome to visit the Torbay Rocks exhibition anytime during the day (from 10am and we close at 5pm) or from 7pm then Kevin’s talk will take place from 7.45pm.
