Try Neil Rix. I think he bought the Dover Marquee Co kit when they folded.

Peter.
I should have put that a bit different, I need a marquee for the boxing ring and we have very little funds left, I was wondering if any local groups had one that we could give a donation for borrowing it, for the day?

We have managed to fund our boxing marquee and 60 young boxers will be putting on a display of their skills, along with many other attractions.
Below is from former event.

One of the very few events we still go to might even be the only one.
It is a very good day out and I hope to be there and bring the good weather with us.

Both my wife and myself have had a great day and I would like Gary and all the others for coming and talking to both of us today,even members of the Dover Forum and some old boxers who were around when I was, it made it as I said a great day out for both of us and good weather to.The event is one of the best that is put on each year and looking back into the history of the Kent pits and the men that went down them and the help they got from their own familys. Seeing the 100s of photos and storys and the old press cutouts of bygone years. Thank you.

Well done to all those involved in the Festival today (and those who work hard behind the scenes). As a family group ranging from 4 to 86 there was plenty to keep us entertained all day. Also, a big thank you to the Tilmanstone Welfare Team who keep the ground in such great condition. An army of volunteers proving once again that they are worth their weight in gold!
