ABOUT THE SECRET SWITCH ON:
Determined not to let the occasion go unmarked, One Maidstone is announcing the Secret Switch On, a pre-recorded and socially distanced concert film, available to watch for free online from Thursday November 19th, the evening the lights switch on event would have traditionally taken place, and on catch up at any time, via www.onemaidstone.com, Youtube and social media.

Performances from local singers and dancers will be filmed in high profile venues around the town centre, out of hours and without an audience, to be combined to create an evening of entertainment. Already lined up to take part are organisations such as Fremlin Walk, the Mall shopping centre, the Royal Star Arcade, Maidstone Dance Studios, Enchanted Events 4 Kids, Mid Kent College, Mandy Ellen Performing Arts, the Maidstone Distillery and other Maidstone-based talent and spaces, as well as a signed performance by Hi-Kent.

Town centre businesses will be represented with segments about their own Christmas plans and window displays, and festive messages from traders, and local charities such as MMK Mind and Inspired Friendships will discuss help and support available around the Christmas period.
