Without doubt the biggest event in Faversham is the annual Hop Festival held on the first weekend of September (except in 2008 when it will be the last weekend in August!).
In 2007 more than 25,000 people joined us in this event.
There is much to see and do. Entertainment runs from the morning and into the evening. Shepherd Neame orgainses guided tours around the brewery and there are steam trains carrying passengers around the county.
The Railway Hotel is proud to participate in these festivities and is increasingly becoming a focus for many activities. Already we are planning next year's programme ~ details to follow.
If you wish to stay here for the weekend please be advised that the hotel books up very quickly and you are advised to be quick about booking!
The 2008 Hop Festival will be on Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st August 2008.
