A drive-in festival series will kick off with an evening of comedy next month.

Maidstone's Mote Park will be the venue for Drive-In Me Crazy's Lark in the Park, featuring comedians Marcus Brigstocke, Stephen K Amos and Rachel Parris.

The event, which organisers say is the county's first social distancing festival series, will be held on Thursday, July 30, and will be MC Stephen Grant of Brighton-based Komedia.

Ticket holders will have their own fenced-off vehicle parking bay and will be waited on through the event, while ordering food and drink via an app.

Each parking bay will be a minimum of 2m from the next, while visitors will only need to leave their bay to use toilet facilities.

They can expect arena sized staging, sound and light.
