Make Maidstone your shopping destination this Christmas and choose from a fantastic selection of shops. The County Town has the biggest retail offer in Kent where you can choose your Christmas gift from a fabulous selection of high street names, complemented by some of the best independent shops around. And when you have shopped till you drop enjoy a well earned break at one of the many restaurants, wine bars or cafes that abound in the town centre.
Include a trip to the ever popular Jack and the Beanstalk pantomime at the Hazlitt Theatre or a visit to the award winning Maidstone Museum, and then maybe a film or ten-pin bowling to finish off your day.
The town centre Christmas lights will be switched on by the Mayor on Sunday 23 November in a ceremony that follows a day of avant garde street theatre and free family entertainment. See Maidstone's own polar bear, meet the Lost Arctic Explorers and listen to Musical Ruth who is probably the best singing nun act in the country!
