DREAMLAND MARGATE OPENING NIGHT HULLABALLOO
Dreamland Margate, the UK’s
original pleasure park, has
announced the line up for its
spectacular, star-studded launch
party – The Dreamland Opening
Night Hullabaloo!
After an 11-year campaign, the hotly
anticipated Dreamland will open to
guests on Friday 19th June with an
evening of performances and music
from the best of British
entertainment.
Vic Reeves will host the night with
acts ranging from headliners, Marina
and the Diamonds, to cockney
legends Chas and Dave and popup performances from special
guests. The Dreamland Opening
Night Hullabaloo will be a night to
remember as the iconic seaside
institution reveals a new look and
a re-imagined site for a new
generation.
The old fashioned, yet oh-sofashionable destination will feature
a host of stylishly restored,
recreated and retrofitted rides and

amusements from the golden age
of British seaside holidays. Much
like the park itself, the Dreamland
Opening Night Hullaballoo will be a
vibrant mix of classic entertainment
with a roller disco, singalongs and
Punch and Judy shows, alongside
the best in contemporary
performance, DJs, musicians and
circus acts.
