The UK Creative Festival is heading to Margate

NEWS - The UK Creative Festival is heading to Margate

The UK’s most exciting creative industry event is back this summer, and it’s all happening in sunny Margate on 9th & 10th July 2025.

The UK Creative Festival is your chance to soak up two days of inspiring talks, panels, and workshops, plus some sea side fun on the Kent coast. Whether you’re already working in the creative world or just thinking about dipping your toes in, this festival is a brilliant way to connect with industry leaders, pick up ideas, and get your creativity flowing.

At the heart of the festival is the Creative Careers Fair, a free-to-attend event run by the Creative Foundation. It’s all about opening doors for the next generation – helping young people from all backgrounds access real opportunities in creative fields, from advertising and film to design, music, and more.

Over the past 4 years, the fair has welcomed over 3,500 young creatives, and this year’s shaping up to be the biggest yet. Expect workshops, portfolio reviews, CV advice, and Q&As with top names in the industry. You’ll also hear from leading creatives and brands during keynote talks and panels. It’s a must for anyone looking to break into the business.
