An Evening with Nigel Owens MBE

Nigel Owens MBE comes to the Main Auditorium at Weymouth Pavilion on Thursday 16 September 2027, starting at 7:30pm. If you've followed rugby over the last couple of decades, you'll know him as one of the world's top referees, but he's just as well known for the personality he brings to the role. He's built a bit of an international following on the back of his charm, wit and fairness, and he's the only referee to have been appointed to three consecutive Heineken Cup finals.

The night is set up in two halves. In the first, Owens shares tales from on and off the field, drawing on a career spent at the highest level of the game. The second half opens it up to the room with a live Q&A, so you'll get to hear him answer questions from the audience rather than just listening to him hold the floor. It's a chance to hear the stories that don't usually make it into the match reports.

Weymouth is one of the stops on a sell-out run across venues in the UK, so this is one of the few times he'll be appearing in the area. If you're planning to make a proper evening of it, pre-show meals are served in the Piano Bar from 5pm, which gives you plenty of time to eat and settle in before the main event starts.

Standard tickets are £32, and there's a VIP Meet & Greet Experience for £51, which includes a meet-and-greet with Owens himself starting at 6:30pm. The show kicks off at 7:30pm in the Main Auditorium.
