Have you done everything there is to do in our beautifiul county?

Probably not, as it's a massive county, and there are loads of brilliant events and activities with a huge amount of diversity.

So to help you explore, we at Kent Live have put together an ultimate guide in the form of a bucket list.

A bucket list is a selection of things you would like to do before you die - or 'kick the bucket'.

It contains big events alongside ideas which are more thoughtful, and showcases the best of what Kent has to offer.

How many have you completed? Let us know in the comments below
