About

 

 

Hops n Harvest Beer Festival at Kent Life from Kent Life on Vimeo.

We are looking forward to the return of this fabulous, family friendly festival in 2024. Visitors can join in with the traditional hand-picking of hops, as well as meeting historical characters from Kent’s past.

You can also sample a wide variety of ales and ciders while absorbing the fantastic live music programme.

Take time to visit one of the last working coal-fired oast houses in the country, and witness the hop-making process from picking to drying.

There’s also lots of Kent Life entertainment to enjoy, from animal encounters to tractor rides.

There will be plenty of live and local musical entertainment from established Kent acts alongside some bright upcoming stars too.
