Music on the Hill

After successfully bringing fantastic, family fun-filled events to Kings Hill, West Malling in 2011, Music On The Hill is back with another superb three-day line-up. 

The events are for an amazing cause with 100% of profits from this major event going to Demelza Hospice Care for Children, Teens Unite Fighting Cancer and The Children's Development Trust.

Headlining on Friday 19th July is Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra featuring Gilson Lavis with special guest Roland Gift - the voice of Fine Young Cannibals and guest vocalists Ruby Turner and Louise Marshall.

Saturday’s bill has two very well known acts taking to the stage. In the afternoon Dougie Poynter, Harry Judd, Danny Jones and Tom Fletcher, of Brit Award-winning band McFly will be making a return to Music On The Hill after pleasing the crowd back at the 2011 event.
