Disabled Access

We aim to have disabled access to all venues. However, as we are still finalising venues we cannot guarantee that all venues will have full access.

Travelling by car
Whitstable is just off the M2. It is around an hour's drive from London (from the Blackwall Tunnel).

Travelling by train
Trains from London Victoria take around 1 hour and 20 minutes. If you take a Eurostar train from mainland Europe, change at Ashford International. There are no direct trains from there to Whitstable, but the journey takes around 1 hour and 30 minutes (changing at Ramsgate, Margate or Canterbury).

Please note that there are engineering works on Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 July on the London - Whitstable line, with a replacement bus service. The works are between Faversham and Whitstable, which is only a few miles, but it will add time to your journey.
