Gulbenkian closed from 5.30pm on Wed 28 Jan

We are closed for a private event this Wednesday evening. We are open again as usual from Thursday.

You Are Here is a new, wildly eclectic, three-day independent music festival in East Kent.

Grassroots music promoters from across East Kent take over every space in the Gulbenkian Arts Centre presenting artists from a huge range of genres. Whether you’re into West African griot mixed with Belgian punk (Avalanche Kaito), flamboyantly absurd disco (Chewy She), hard-hitting post-punk (Shelf Lives) or retro-future electro-shambles (Paddy Steer) you’ll find something exciting here.

TICKETS: You can buy tickets for individual days, or for the whole weekend. Tickets are limited to 300 so book early to avoid disappointment!

Full three-day festival tickets are only £40 (£30 early bird until 31 Jan) – book here

About You Are Here

You Are Here is brought to you by: Free Range, Gulbenkian Arts Centre, Smugglers, The Hot Tin, Daylight Music, The Crash of Moons Club, Coastal Electronauts, Deep Listen, The Rockstar Experience & Big Cheese Arts.

The unique thing about You Are Here is the collaboration between nine Kent-based promoters and the communities they represent. Grassroots music promoters are improbable magicians, creating joyful communal gatherings at a time when this is both very hard to do and much needed.

Our region has such a diverse cultural life but without a major metropolitan hub our creative scenes often exist in isolation. You Are Here aims to bring these scenes together, joining the dots between the constellations and celebrating the full extent of what we have here in East Kent.

ART31

ART31 takes its name from Article 31 of the UN Convention on the Rights of a Child, which states that ‘Children have the right to relax and play, and to join in a wide range of cultural, artistic and other recreational activities’.

ART31 is a vision created with, by, and for young people in Kent, championing the belief that all children and young people have an entitlement to access high quality arts and culture, to empower them to achieve their creative potential, and to genuinely engage young people as equal partners in any decision making that affects them.

The ART31 Youth Board is made up of young people from across Kent aged 13-25 who steer its governance, and influence policy and practice across the county and beyond, challenging the creative sector to examine existing ways of working and integrate young people into the core of their practice.
