Furley Fest 2026 – an evening of connection, celebration and sunset views

The Partners and staff of Furley Page welcomed clients, Kent business and community leaders and their families at the second annual Furley Fest on 23^rd July. Held at Cresent Turner Hotel in Whitstable guests enjoyed an evening of music, entertainment, food and celebration.

The inaugural Furley Fest was held last year as part of the firm’s 300^th anniversary celebration, and the festival’s return marks a commitment to engage colleagues and clients, while raising funds for Furley Page Foundations charity of the year – this year’s chosen charity is the Kent Neuro Therapy Centre in Canterbury.

The event was hosted at Cresent Turner, overlooking Whitstable and the estuary. Guests were kept entertained with music from local bands Shiva Dance Band and Broken Strings Acoustic Duo, while the younger attendees enjoyed a circus skills workshop and performance.

Delicious food and drinks were enjoyed with views of the stunning summer sunset.

Anna Joiner, Partner at Furley Page, who helped organise the event, said: “It was fantastic to host a celebration event with our clients, staff and their families, while raising money for an extremely worthwhile cause.

“We are especially pleased to hold the event within the local community, showcasing Kentish musicians, entertainers, food and refreshments, against the picturesque backdrop of a stunning seaside residence. It really was the perfect way to enjoy a summer evening.”
