Hops n Harvest Beer Festival at Kent Life from Kent Life on Vimeo.
Hops ‘n’ Harvest Family Festival – Bigger, Better & Full of Kentish Charm!
Looking for a weekend packed with fun, flavour, and something for the whole family?
You’ve just found it. Hops ‘n’ Harvest Family Festival is back at Kent Life – and this year it’s even bigger and better!
40 cask ales and cider (yes, 40!) – sip and sample your way through an amazing range of real ales (Bringing your own alcohol onto the festival site is strictly prohibited.)
Live music all weekend – from toe-tapping tunes to sing-along favourites
Fairground rides, bouncy castles, and loads of kids’ entertainment to keep the little ones busy
Our legendary Foam Party Disco is back – bubbly, boogie-worthy fun for all ages
Tasty food stalls with plenty to fill hungry tummies (and maybe some sweet treats too!)
Step back in time with our traditional hop-picking – see how the hop workers lived, visit vintage houses, and even peek inside a real hop caravan!
Oh, and did we mention the hops have been harvested? The place smells amazing.
This is more than just a festival – it’s a proper Kentish celebration with all your favourites in one place. Bring the family, bring your mates, and let’s raise a glass to good times!
