The Tours are arranged by a team of 110 volunteers.During the walking tour with your guide, you will meet many costumed characters from past centuries. You will see the flint built church and find out a little more about its long history. You will hear of conditions in the workhouse, the Newbolts breakfast concerts for hundreds of fashionable people, the tower used in the Napoleonic wars, famous (and infamous) local residents and our ancient seat of local government for the area.The tour is conducted in groups of around ten and covers less than a mile of flat walking, but does involve standing for a number of 5 minute presentations.

In very wet weather we provide an Inclement weather Routine. Access for visitors with disabilities. Children are very welcome on our tour. We would however, suggest a minimum age of 10 years to fully appreciate the experience. At the end of the tour you are invited to contribute towards our costs which average £4 per adult.

Over the years my kids have visited Revolution many times. From skateboarding, to BMX to wall climbing. It’s always been fantastic and somewhere they always wanted to go back to. We have had parties there too and again brilliant. Very recommended ????

Houdini’s Magic Bar a place out of the ordinary! A little bit quirky and a lot Magical! Every evening you are invited to join us, settle in and experience Miracles of Magic whilst enjoying great drinks and great company. See shows, close up and exclusive performances by our Resident Magician’s, many of whom are members of the prestigious Black Card Club and Magic Circle. Houdini’s Magic Bar first opened in the Dickensian town of Broadstairs in 2016. It is a warm and welcoming place to come and enjoy fine refreshments and is home to some of Kent’s finest Magicians. We are proud to have won Newcomer of the Year 2017 in the Kent Life Food and Drink Awards. Houdini’s now has a second bar in Canterbury, both Magic Bars celebrate all that is Magic and the interiors lend themselves to a whole manner of Magic curiosities. All of customers are welcomed to while away the hours with us in a bar like no other! Come in for a catch up, play a board game or two and enjoy live Magic.
Visited Houdini’s in the evening at the beginning of December. Broadstairs was fairly quiet when we went for a meal and had a look at a few other bars along the high street. But Houdini’s had a fair few people in and a great atmosphere. So we’re pleased that we decided to spend our evening here. There was a fantastic magician walking around doing card tricks and he then later done a show. Through the night there was a compere doing competitions and telling jokes. The bar staff was also very friendly and told us the history about the cranberry gin we were drinking. Me and my partner like to look for niche and different bars. And we will definitely be returning to Houdini’s.

This was our first ever escape room experience (me and my 10 year old son) so we chose to do "Pirates of the Polaris" Our captain was absolutely fantastic, welcoming, professional and incredibly charming, and we had great fun solving the really intricate puzzles and rooms. Very immersive and I would recommend to anyone. Hoping to come back and do "The Pit" on our next adventure.

We did the Detention room today (sadly it is closing soon) for our second visit to Ctrl Alt Esc and as with our last visit, found it to be a fantastic room. I like how their rooms here are 90 minutes long which means that there are lots of puzzles to solve. The detention room was a great setting and everything worked perfectly in the room. There was a good range of puzzles and the soundtrack to the room was particularly amusing, without being too loud or intrusive. Cat was a brilliant GM, full of passion and excitement, who was reserved with her hint giving, allowing us time to work things out for ourselves rather than jumping in with clues immediately. It was also great to talk to her afterwards and share escape room experiences - it does make such a difference when the GM has done lots of rooms themselves and knows what makes a good GM. Overall, for a small independent family run business, they offer some fantastic rooms that provide lots of entertainment.

The Powell-Cotton Trust are excited to announce the formal launch of our ‘Reimagining the Museum’ project. Over the next 2 years the Trustees with the ‘Reimagining’ programme team, have some key aims: - Implementation of our decolonisation strategy - Redesign and develop our education and outreach programme - Deliver the ‘Colonial Critters’ project - Create and deliver an exciting programme of public engagement – both digital and physical, including public events - Carry out essential remedial and restorative work to the museum building, Quex House and Quex Gardens Throughout this exciting period of change we have taken the difficult decision that the museum, house and gardens will not be open for public visits other than through organised events and programmes. These will all be advertised on our website and through social media, allowing audiences to continue to connect with our collections – physically, virtually and through outreach.
Whilst February isn’t the best time to see the gardens there is so much inside the museum to see. An amazing collection and worth a visit.

A gem of a theatre in Margate town presenting an exciting mix of shows and events.
We attended a show compered by LUNATRAKTORS, an amusing folk duo supported by a number of female acts based around Power of Women and International Women’s Day. The show combined dance, song and music, poetry and of course old folk, otherwise known as Broken Folk by Lunatraktors themselves. The actual theatre oozes character and a long history dating back originally to the 18th century and is regularly seen to stage famous acts from London’s west end as well as local talent. A very cosy venue in a traditional style with balconies and boxes and magnificent decor. If anything could be improved it would be the external structure that needs a bit of TLC.

Lovely, intimate museum, with a full size Spitfire and an excellent Spitfire simulator. My "flight instructor" was informative and very supportive of my flying efforts. The simulator is definitely an excellent experience and the cafe was very good./
