Faversham International Hop Festival is a free traditional festival which has been delivering intimate and family focused fun since 1990. Set in the medieval town square of Faversham, the festival also involves the age-old tradition of hop picking in Kent.

This year is the 26th Faversham International Festival and whilst no acts have been confirmed there are bound to be lots of folk and traditional acts signed up by the September weekend it is organised. The festival includes a professional street theatre, children’s entertainers, Morris dancing and ceilidh. There is also a traditional procession as part of the festival.
