Thanet Rocks is a live music charity event happening on Sunday, 14th September 2025, at the Broadstairs Pavilion, proudly supported by 107.8 Academy FM. This free-to-enter event brings together some of Thanet's most loved bands to deliver an unforgettable day of live performances, all while raising funds for Pilgrims Hospices.

Our goal is to raise £3,000 to support the incredible work Pilgrims Hospices does for patients and families in our community. Join us in making a difference through the power of music!

At its heart, Pilgrims is dedicated to providing skilled and compassionate care, free of charge, to people living with an incurable illness in east Kent. Their vision is that people with a life-limiting illness are supported and empowered to live well in mind & body, making the most of the time they have. They care for over 2,500 patients a year, at their 3 inpatient units in Canterbury, Thanet & Ashford, their therapy centres, or in patients’ own homes. With 80% of their funding being voluntary contributions, your support cannot be overstated.
