All-inclusive music event Festability is back at Quex in Birchington this June.
The event was launched in 2018 by three parents of disabled children, who wanted to organise a music festival for people with disabilities living in Kent.
The first festival at Quex attracted 1,700 people. Although the event is aimed at people with disabilities, it’s open to the whole community to attend and share the day.
This year’s festival takes place on June 18 and will include a quiet/chill zone with sensory lights and sounds, a changing places suite and qualified staff to help assist.
There will also be a main stage, karaoke tent, activities, messy play, fairground, stalls, beer tent, face painting and BSL interpreters.
This year will also include headline act The Show Company with their Greatest Showman tribute, a giant Scalextric track, a VR / Gaming suite and a Bounce Bot (on jumping stilts).

I wish they’d bring back music concerts weekends to Quex when they used to have bands like Madness on one day over the weekend and then a classical concert the next like they did before with name singers like Katherine Jenkins .
This enabled people to have a picnic and listen to the music .
I don’t really know why they stopped doing them .
I guess it’s down making a decent profit .
