This event is held at the The Music Workshop, Folkestone 1B Town Walk, Folkestone CT20 2AD (just a 10 minute walk from Folkestone Central Station) It has a bar serving alcohol, hot drinks & snacks.
This is a ticketed event and spaces are very limited – these events regularly sell out so do book early to avoid disappointment. Please arrive as close as possible to 3.30pm when doors open to purchase a drink and grab yourself a seat so we can start the show on time at 4pm.
*We are aware this show is priced slightly higher than normal. This is to warrant The Dunwells travelling down from Leeds. We promise they’re worth way more than the extra £3! However, if you’re quick … you can use the discount code “earlybird” but there are only 10 available !
