Wartime Dover can be re-lived by visitors to the popular annual Hellfire Corner weekend next month.

Held in Pencester Gardens on June 14 and 15, it will feature wartime music and period dress, with a number vehicles of the time and the RAF living history group's Battle of Britain operations room demonstration.

There will be 1940s-style music performed throughout the weekend by artistes including Swingtime Sweethearts, the Lindy Hoppers, the Clover Sisters and Kas.

For those who enjoy dancing to the music of the era, the Big Band Dance in Dover Town Hall will be playing on Saturday evening and the Betteshanger Brass Band will get the visitors' toes tapping at the bandstand on Sunday.

Tickets for the dance are £19.50 and a buffet is included in the price.

Dress code for the dance is 1940s civilian, allied uniform or black tie.
