We were thrilled to once again be able to support the Faversham Hop Festival this year by sponsoring the Central Car Park Stage, where a variety of acoustic duos and bands perform.
The Hop Festival is a huge event in Kent loved by all ages, and celebrates hops, harvest and the best of Faversham. It’s also a chance for local musicians to take to the stage and play to a live audience.
As a local business, it’s important to us to get involved in the local community and give something back. Business backing is vital to help make sure events like this can continue to run and be enjoyed by local people year after year.
Of course, we also went along to enjoy the day and had a brilliant time supporting the local community. A number of staff and their family members enjoyed this annual community family event. We found a spot where we could enjoy the bands along with the various food and drinks the Hops Festival had to offer.
Duane commented, ‘My first Hop Festival was more than 15 years ago. I was intrigued by the Morris Dancer, the hops being adorned by everyone, and the music. It was not difficult to find a stage with music that got you tapping away.
‘When we were approached by the Hop Festival Committee asking whether we would like to be part of the festival we were delighted.
‘The Hop Festival is an integral part of Faversham and indeed Kent, as is Bridger’s Law, and so it seems like a match made in heaven.
‘We are passionate about towns retaining their identities and holding onto all that is good whilst ensuring that they are not left behind, and Faversham is such a town.’
We hope that everyone who went along had as much fun as we did – and we look forward to supporting the festival again in 2025!
