Join us for a Tower Tour at 3pm on Saturday 3rd May at St George’s Ramsgate, as part of the launch event of sixty beats per minute.

You will be guided by Jemima Brown, Regeneration Officer for St George’s, up to the beautiful ‘lantern’ tower of the church through various rooms until you reach the Vulliamy turret clock and the mechanism of the live surround sound installation in the nave of the church.

You can also view the old tubular bells, unique carvings, and the inside of the roof space. Finally – if you have a head for heights – climb up a 55-step open staircase and through a hatch for spectacular views of the town, and sometimes as far as France!

Donations are welcome towards the church restoration via the card reader at the church.

Opening times: 12 – 5 pm Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays

Launch: 3 May 4 – 6pm, all welcome, refreshments served

Closing performance Sunday 29th June: Phil Coy invites local music producer and UK dub legend Adrian Sherwood and friends to hijack sixty beats per minute. They will perform a new composition and live dub remix that breaks down the mechanics of the clocks regimented beat.
