The Talk of Tankerton run many free events during the year, from street markets to scavenger hunts, our Circus Fair in August, to the Scarecrow Festival in October finishing with our popular Safe Trick ‘O’ Treat on Halloween night and not forgetting the Christmas season with lights, decorated trees, our Christmas Market and family events from late November.

Although these events are totally free to attend, we use them to raise awareness of what Tankerton has to offer, raising crucial funds to continue delivering improvement projects for the whole community. We have sponsorship and trading opportunities available. For more details please look at our events diary.

If you would like to take part please send an email to thetalkoftankerton@gmail.com

Great British High Street Finalists

Through the improvement projects we’ve led, the numerous events we’ve held and the support from the community over the years, Tankerton was a finalist in the Great British High Street awards, grabbing the attention of local radio and TV stations.

Always fun, friendly, for families and always free

We love putting on events and providing family entertainment and work hard all year in organising them in our spare time.

We rely on volunteers and donations to make this possible. If you help in anyway, with your time, particular skill or any donation, please let us know.
