The Archers: Live at 75 takes the world of the well-loved BBC radio drama onto a theatre stage, celebrating 75 years since the programme began. It plays the Bournemouth International Centre (BIC) on 19 November 2026.
About the show
The Archers began broadcasting in 1951 and has grown into one of Britain's most recognised radio dramas, following the everyday lives of a fictional farming community ever since. This stage tribute brings that familiar world to a live audience to mark the programme's 75th anniversary. Further details, including the running order, are set by the venue nearer the date, so check the BIC's official listing for the latest updates.
Making a night of it
Set directly on the seafront in the town centre, the BIC is a short walk from the beach, the Lower Gardens and a wide choice of restaurants and bars for before or after the performance. Coastal evenings in November can turn cold, so dress warmly for the walk to the venue. Tickets are booked through the venue's official listing, which also carries the latest times and prices.
