From outdoor food festivals to music events and al fresco entertainment, this spring and summer across Kent could be looking up.

Last year, many events were forced to cancel due to the pandemic, but with the Government’s roadmap out of restrictions, 2021 could look very different for all of us.

While not all events can return, many organisers are getting Visit Britain’s Good to Go stamp, making arrangements with safety in mind, and taking the plunge to set dates for this year.

While events have been on hold, the KM Group’s online events calendar has too, but now there are dates to look forward to, we want to bring you the information you need to plan ahead.

The online calendar gives you a chance to find an event, or to put in your own so that other people can see it.

You can click on a date in the calendar to see events on a certain day, and you can also search for events you are interested in.

Most importantly, you can submit your own events, from boot sales and cake sales to live music and fundraising fairs, by going to the link and filling in the details so that other people interested can see them.

Events listings may also go into the KM Group’s What’s On guide, which is included in all KM Group newspapers, space permitting, on the week they are taking place.

To submit an event and search for others, go to kentonline.co.uk/whats-on
