UK PAPER BAND
2025-06-14 14:30 - 16:30 | The Leas Bandstand, The Leas Folkestone, Folkestone, Select a State:, CT20 2XL, United Kingdom
A non contesting brass band based in Sittingbourne.
The UK Paper Band is currently going from strength to strength, under the leadership of musical director Dan Sargeant.
The band plays at many engagements across Kent, in a variety of venues, from bandstands on the coast, to churches around North Kent, at summer fetes, or at our “home” in the Appleyard.
In 1883 Edward Lloyd, owner of the Daily Chronicle, set up his brass band for the employees in his paper mill, then called the Daily Chronicle Band. The mill was purchased by Eric Bowater in 1936 and for fifty years until 1986 the band was known as the Bowater Band. Since 1986 there have been more changes of ownership of the mill but the band has remained the UK Paper Band. The Band rehearse at the Appleyard (formerly UK Paper Leisure Club), which was historically the mill’s social club.
In the early days of the band all the players worked at the paper mill and were given time off to attend rehearsals and play at concerts. The band was often seen at parades and processions, marching along Sittingbourne High Street. Today the band attracts players from across Kent and continues to flourish.

One Night of Elvis
2025-06-14 19:30 - 21:30 | Leas Cliff Hall
Lee Memphis King, Europe’s most successful Elvis Presley tribute artist, recreates the essence of the King with consummate ease and an almost unbelievable combination of stunningly accurate vocals and incredible passion in every performance.

Why go and see it?

There are Elvis tributes…and then there’s Lee Memphis King.

Over the last 10 years as Lee has toured his One Night of Elvis he has picked up numerous accolades and has headlined and sold out some of the most prestigious venues across the UK and beyond.

In this latest production, Lee Memphis King portrays Elvis Presley at his peak celebrating the iconic ‘Vegas Years’ from 1969 – 1977. Resplendent in the most authentic costumes from Elvis’s performance and an orchestra backing this incredible performer prepare to be taken back in time to see Elvis in the way it was.

Judging by this quality performance at a full Hammersmith Apollo, Lee Memphis King is certainly among the premier league of tributes
– THE STAGE NEWSPAPER

When I closed my eyes I could feel Elvis
– JOE ESPOSITO – LIFELONG FRIEND OF ELVIS PRESLEY

Lee Memphis King is a star in his own right, with his professionalism and desire to leave us all walking away believing that we had been touched by Elvis himself
– THE DAILY INFO, OXFORD

This brand new production is dedicated entirely to the ‘Vegas Years’ when Elvis would perform in Las Vegas and tour throughout the US and Canada – the definitive record of these performances are contained in the films ‘Elvis- That’s the Way It Is’, ‘Elvis On Tour’ and the ‘Aloha from Hawaii’ concert.
The show is enhanced by an orchestra of world class musicians and backing vocalists
coupled with impressive video screen projection mapping out Elvis’s life and music.
Lee Memphis King recreates it all with stunning authenticity – the voice and equally important for Lee, the passion and energy that Elvis put into his songs. He leaves audiences in no doubt that they are witnessing the world’s No 1 Elvis Tribute Artist. Pure entertainment and Pure Presley.

This event is only on for one night!
