Radio 1 would like bands from Maidstone and Kent to get in touch with us for the chance to be part of Radio 1’s Big Weekend – The Fringe Festival. The Fringe will celebrate the local music scene, from guitar bands through to bedroom DJs, MCs and everything in between. Maidstone can look forward to the event taking place in the town in the week preceding Radio 1’s Big Weekend.
