A town centre will be welcoming musicians for a series of outdoor gigs throughout the summer.

Live at the Pantiles, hosted at the Tunbridge Wells shopping destination, will see a diverse line-up of singers and bands take to the stage for 22 concerts.

The event will take place each Thursday and will feature jazz musicians, tribute acts, singer-songwriters and more.

The Pantiles estate manager Martin O’Meara said: "We're thrilled to continue Live at the Pantiles and bring another year of entertainment to this beloved event.

“With an eclectic line-up and a renewed focus on inclusivity, we're confident that this season will be our best one yet.

“We can't wait to welcome both returning fans and newcomers alike to experience the magic of live music at The Pantiles."

It all kicks off on Thursday, May 15 with a performance from Swinging Little Big Band, who play jazz, swing and jive versions of modern pop and rock songs.

The series will continue until September, with the likes of ‘70s tribute band Abalicious, Kent-based ska group The Skatonics, Ronnie Scott’s regulars Jazz Dynamos and classic crooners the Ben Hills Quartet all set to perform.

There will also be special themed nights, with Soul Train and Bollywood events planned for this year.

You can book tickets and find the full line-up online here.

There will also be a pop-up bar open during the concerts and attendees are welcome to bring their own chairs, although there is seating available on site.
