Country Club - Country Music Festival - Margate
The UK's first country music festival day party returns to Dreamland in Margate, June 2026.
Looking for things to do in Margate this weekend? A varied programme runs from June 5th to June 7th. The extended daylight offers time for evening walks, live music, and other activities. If you're coming from further afield, take the Southeastern train from Margate railway station to London Victoria or St Pancras International. You can find a relaxed pace at Main Sands, where the family-friendly beach is open. Westbrook Bay has fewer facilities. Dreamland can get crowded during peak season.
Theatre Royal and Winter Gardens are still closed, and Margate Museum is currently undergoing refurbishment. In Northdown Park, access to the Secret Jungle Garden is restricted. Check listings below for times and locations. You can use the Cantii Way cycle route or the Kent coast trail to explore the area.
Consider taking a short drive to reach venues outside the city. Avoid relying on the Victoria Jubilee Clock Tower area, where seagulls are active. The Discovery online service will be unavailable from 17:00 on Thursday 2 April until 11:00 on Tuesday 7 April due to IT maintenance.
