Welcome

The Thanet Music and Drama Festival was founded as a charity in 1921, and each year offers a platform for hundreds of amateur musicians, actors and dancers in and around the Thanet area to perform in front of an audience and gain expert critical advice.

The audience also benefits from hours of quality 'edutainment' for a very low cost (approximately 100 hours / 1500 performances for £10), combined with commentaries which help enhance their enjoyment of the arts.

The festival consists of five sections (Instrumental, Speech & Drama, Piano, Dance, Vocal & Choral) and is held in February to March every year.

Next Festival: February-March 2008

The dates and venues for the 2008 festival are as shown below (the 'map' links also offer directions for finding the shortest route to each venue):
