Broadstairs runs on a calendar. In June the Dickens Festival fills the town with Victorian costume, in August Broadstairs Folk Week brings music into the pubs, gardens and onto the beaches, and in between the bays from Viking Bay round to Joss Bay and Botany Bay draw families and walkers. The independent shops, cafés, galleries and the cinema along the High Street and Albion Street depend on that rhythm, as do the guest houses, holiday lets and tradespeople across CT10.
We’re a creative agency based at Union Park in Maidstone. We’re happy to come to you, whether that’s a café terrace above Viking Bay or an office in St Peter’s, and you’re always welcome to visit our office. Our crew comes over for filming, festival weekends included. Here’s what we offer Broadstairs businesses:

Broadstairs is a small town where reputation travels quickly, so the way you present yourself matters. We give local businesses access to a full creative team, and we’ll meet you in person, in Broadstairs or at our Maidstone office, at times that fit around your trade.
Planned around the season
We schedule launches, print runs and campaigns so they’re ready before Easter, the Dickens Festival, Folk Week and the summer holidays, rather than in the middle of them.
Meetings that fit your day
We’ll come to you in Broadstairs before opening or after closing, you’re welcome to drop in to our Maidstone office, and a video call is there if it’s easier during the busy season.
Right-sized for small teams
Many Broadstairs businesses are run by a handful of people. We scope projects to suit that, and hand over things you can manage yourself.

As well as Broadstairs town centre we work with businesses in St Peter’s, Kingsgate, Dumpton and around Westwood Cross. Ramsgate and Margate are both just along the coast, and we also cover Sandwich, Deal and Canterbury. Our areas we cover page lists every town we work in.

Working with Dope Studio in Broadstairs: FAQs
Is your office in Broadstairs?
No, we're based at Union Park, Bircholt Road in Maidstone. We come to Broadstairs to meet clients and film, and you're welcome to visit us.
Can you film during the Dickens Festival or Folk Week?
Yes, if you'd like coverage of your involvement or your venue during a festival. We'll plan around crowds and any organiser rules, and book early, as these weekends are busy.
We're open seven days in summer. How much of our time will a project take?
Not much. We'll arrange meetings at times that suit you, often early or after closing, either at your premises or at our office, and keep them short and focused. A video call is an option if you can't get away.
How do we start?
Send a few lines through our contact page or call the office, and we'll arrange to meet, in Broadstairs, at our office or on a video call.
