There's so much a-going on in Folkestone
If you've never visited the town before
they've got what all the others have, and so much more
Reading, staging
they are very big on knowledge-sharing
They have their finger on the pulse, tres à la mode
[As evidenced by the goings on in the Folkestone Road]
Folkestone, Folkestone
hardly ever overshadowed, that's Folkestone
The town is renowned the whole world over
especially with those that've never ever heard of Dover...

We hope to throw some light on our history from merchant adventurers to suffragettes, castle builders to nuclear physicists, to help understand and offer a forum to discuss the ailing NHS, war on terror and what future for today young people. Bring the kids for great storytelling or to enjoy a magic lantern show. Meet the mountaineer who climbed Everest, the doctor who pushes the boundaries, the flautist who travels the world and the artist who conceived Folkestone's mermaid. Enjoy a Shakespeare play, discuss a great novel, try a writing workshop, test your literary knowledge and much more."
