If you hold your own public facing gigs, the Marine is a great venue with various adaptable spaces. Several outside organisations hire our venue for gigs and festivals – Ammonite film, Lyme Folk Weekend, Jazz Jurassica, and Lyme Regis Fossil Festival are some recent examples.
There is a main auditorium, two bars, two dressing rooms, and some outside space.

APPENDIX 1 – MAP (LOADING & PARKING)
Unloading and Parking
When you drive down into Lyme itself you will drive down Charmouth road and into Church St.
Church Street is quite a short road, so you will quickly come up on a set of traffic lights.
To the left of these lights is a road called LONG ENTRY. This is the road leading to the rear of the theatre.
Drive up the short road, there is a barrier at the top. This will be opened for your arrival.
Drive past this, and about 15 yards beyond you will see a set of steps. Stop here, you are at the rear of the theatre.
We will ensure the back doors are open, and you can unload here.
If there are other cars, we recommend that you park them in the long stay car park in Charmouth road. Getting into the front of the theatre is through a narrow archway, and difficult for any but small cars; there are no parking facilities there.
