A Jolly Sailor Bank Holiday Weekender

23rd May - 25th May 2026

Food, drinks and live music all bank holiday weekend

Come and join us for the launch of the newly named and newly renovated St Mary Bredman's Square on the High Street for the late May Bank Holiday weekend, 9am to 7pm 23rd - 25th May 2026.

The Jolly Sailor will be bringing its fully licenced Horse Box Bar, and we will again be joined by Zuri's Coffee along with some awesome street food. We will also be hosting some amazing local upcoming talent with live music throughout the weekend to keep you entertained.

To recognise this space is still church ground, we will be joined on Sunday lunchtime by Reverend Jo who will say a few words to officially mark the site as open.

As the team that brings you A Jolly Christmas Canterbury each year in this lovely space in front of former Nason's, it's a real honour to be asked to come and help relaunch this site. We can't wait to spend a weekend of drinks, coffee, food, and music with you all back at the heart of Canterbury's High Street.

Jolly Good Times.

The event is part of Canterbury Unlocked, a city-wide celebration.
