Unlicensed Easter rave crashed by Kent cops at Polhill
Party plans shut down before they start
Kent Police blocked an unlicensed music gig this Easter weekend after tip-offs that a crowd planned to gather at Polhill, Sevenoaks. Authorities acted quickly on Saturday evening, April 3, when they spotted large groups assembling around 6:50pm.
Music gear confiscated, revellers moved on
Officers swooped on the scene, stopping the event before it kicked off. Police seized sound equipment and dispersed attendees to prevent disruption.
Kent Police warn: No unlicensed events allowed
Superintendent Simon Thompson said: “We appreciate that lockdown has been tough for everyone and over the long bank holiday weekend people may be tempted to attend these events but I must be clear that Kent is not open for unlicensed music events.
“As our officers have shown, we will move people on who come to Kent for this reason, seek to prosecute the organisers and seize equipment that they may bring with them. We want people to have fun and enjoy themselves but not at the expense of others in the community.”
