Sometimes you need more than four walls. 🌳

With extensive outdoor space available at Kent Event Centre, your event doesn’t have to be confined indoors.

From large public events and shows to team-building days and outdoor activities, there’s room to think bigger and create something memorable.

Whatever you’re planning, make space for something different.

Your event. Your vision. Your space. ✨

No two events are the same, so why should the venue be?

At Kent Event Centre, our flexible spaces give you the freedom to create an event that works for you. From conferences and exhibitions to private events and large-scale productions, our spaces provide the blank canvas — you bring the ideas.

Big or small, simple or ambitious, there’s space to make it happen.

🏆 The Kent Charity Awards! 🏆

The charitable arm of our organisation, the Kent County Agricultural Society, were honoured to be selected as finalists in the Animal & Environment Charity category of the Kent Charity Awards again this year.

A few members of the team got the opportunity to attend the awards night at the Ashford International Hotel last night, and we're delighted to announce that the Kent County Agricultural Society was named as the winners of the category! 🤩

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our incredible volunteers who help make our work possible and all those who have supported our events this year, including our clients, visitors, exhibitors, traders and contractors who all contribute to our charitable activities!

Charities, trustees and volunteers have been celebrated for their work supporting communities across Kent.
