Join us on Friday 6th February 2026, 5–7:30pm in Maidstone Town Centre for a FREE evening of music, lights and entertainment, including a spectacular lantern parade through the town.
Hundreds of schoolchildren and local community groups will carry their handmade lanterns from County Hall, along Week Street, to Jubilee Square, lighting up the town as they go.
Light Up Maidstone also launches a town-wide Lantern Trail running throughout February and forms part of One Maidstone’s Month of Mental Wellbeing, featuring activities, workshops, events, and access to mental health and community support services.
Brought to you by One Maidstone BID, supported by Maidstone Borough Council, with thanks to Golding Homes (event sponsor), CEP (event partner), and The Arts Society Mid Kent (supporting our schools workshops).
The parade ends with a finale show in Jubilee Square, hosted by KMFM’s Rob and Numi, featuring music, dance and live entertainment until 7.30pm.
