Shepherd Neame is continuing to sponsor the Broadstairs Folk Festival, which this year runs from 5th to 12th August.

Broadstairs Folk Week

After a smaller event last year, due to the pandemic, the event returns with some 400 acts in large and small indoor and outdoor venues. Headliners include Lindisfarne, Show of Hands, and the Longest Johns.

The event will also feature workshops, dancing, and evening ceilidhs. Shepherd Neame will have a bar next to the bandstand.

Three of the brewer’s pubs are hosting events during the week: the Royal Albion, in Albion Street; the Wrotham Arms, in Ramsgate Road; and the Neptunes Hall, in Harbout Street.
