Like many areas of Canterbury, Dane John Gardens has a fascinating history behind it – including its name, which stems from the Norman word, Donjon, which means fortified mound. As Canterbury Historical and Archaeological Society notes, the Romans first built a wall for the city to incorporate an ancient mound. It was the Normans who later built their first castle there, although the existing castle site to the west replaced it. Dane John Gardens has been in public ownership since the 19th century and plays host to a broad range of public events, including the City Sound Project in the Park, happening between 4th-5th May. This free showcase was devised to meet a clear gap for a summer music festival – which has been somewhat missing in the area since the demise of the much-appreciated Lounge on the Farm which ceased several years ago. • Visit

Shakespeare Festival
As Benjamin Chamberlain, organiser of Canterbury’s Shakespeare Festival explains, he founded it as a means of providing a new source of theatre for the community. Having started the event back in 2015, it has gathered momentum in the city, staging a range of works that started from its original two productions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Romeo and Juliet. The festival returns to Canterbury this July. • Visit
