Ramsgate Town Council

Ramsgate Town Council Ramsgate is a wonderful blend of maritime heritage, architectural finery and there's no better place to visit. Ramsgate is naturally appealing.

People have been escaping to the Isle of Thanet for more than 200 years, for the laidback seaside vibe, the breathtaking sandy beaches and fresh sea air, discovering a natural, relaxed and friendly place. Facing south is Ramsgate and its stunning Royal Harbour, unique in England. With a lively shopping area and regular traditional market, the town is excellent for food and eating, with little cafe

s, friendly pubs, excellent varied restaurants and a ‘café culture’ at the harbour-side – the perfect place for a relaxing time. Explore further and you’ll find a cultural core, a wealth of creative residents and a blossoming arts scene with galleries and new businesses emerging. By the harbour, Victorian arches host ship chandlers, boat sales, intriguing shops and artists’ studios - Ramsgate is all about finding hidden treasures and falling in love with a different way of life. Low chalk cliffs dominate the beach and edge the whole Thanet peninsula. Chalk rockpools and rare chalks reefs teem with wildlife yet these are the closest surfing beaches to London.

Behind every successful event is an incredible team...

🎉 A huge thank you to our Town Centre & Tourism Manager and team of Technicians

From our Eurovision Viewing Party to the commemorative Operation Dynamo Weekend, they worked tirelessly - putting in over 250 additional hours across the weekends - to ensure everything ran smoothly and, most importantly, safely for everyone attending.

From early set ups to late pack downs, managing equipment, safety measures and logistics, their dedication often goes unseen - but it makes all the difference.

Chair of Council, Councillor Steve Albon said: “I’m incredibly proud of the staff at Ramsgate Town Council, thank you for everything you’ve done to make these events a success. You represent the very best of our town.”

👏We’re incredibly grateful for their hard work, professionalism and commitment to our community.

Thank you for helping us deliver events that Ramsgate can be proud of ❤️

Ramsgate Town Council expresses its deep disappointment following a number of incidents of vandalism to the Standing With Giants installation currently on display in the Royal Harbour.

This behaviour is deeply disrespectful, not only to the installation itself, but to the historic significance it represents and to those who made the ultimate sacrifice during the Second World War.

All incidents have been reported to Kent Police. Local businesses are also assisting by reviewing CCTV footage in an effort to identify those responsible.

Bravo all of you! ❤️🛥️🛥️❤️

What a remarkable parade and a deeply moving service. A sincere thank you to everyone who took part, and to Reverend Paul Worledge of St George’s Church for leading the service.
