Building on the active lifestyle already heavily evident at the beach,
the event, The ‘Wheels and Fins Festival’, is a three-day action packed
music, extreme sport & beach festival including main events such as; a
Skateboard Mini Ramp Competition, Soapbox Racing, Surfing & Stand up
Paddleboard Events, Live Music & Licensed Bars…
THE AIM
LOCATION
The Wheels and Fins Festival is a unique
fusion of community, business sponsors
and volunteers working together to present
a beach based extreme sports and music
event, which reflects, and celebrates the
socially diverse society of Thanet. The aim
is to produce a FREE, safe, entertaining and
professionally run festival for the local and
wider audience, whilst being noted for its
inclusiveness, strong community cohesion
and environmental awareness.
Joss Bay beach in Broadstairs, Kent, offers
one of the finest sandy beaches within
an easy commute from all over the South
East. It is also the closest recognised
surf break to London with various surf
competitions hosted throughout the year.
Over the summer the beach plays hosts to
thousands of surfers and visitors soaking up
the sun and the mellow vibes. The festival is
only an hour and a half from London on the
high-speed train making it a day trip for any
eager beach thrill seeker. Not many festivals
around the UK can boast that.
