As a marketing agency based in Dover, the live events in the community are a frequent topic of conversation. To document and share the hidden gem, that is Dover’s live music and nightlife scene, we have compiled and visited some of the most iconic locations nearby!
Vinoteq
Coffee shop and co-working space by day, wine bar and music venu by night. Vinoteq is the perfect place to chill out after a hard day of work, or take loved ones on the weekend. Typically playing jazz music and always serving the finest wines.
Situated in the heart of Dover and a short walk from the beach and the port, Vinoteq is in the most idyllic location. Whether you are down for the day or a resident Dovorian, everyone is welcome to a decent glass of wine!
And with the co-working space just upstairs, coming down from London or for work makes your trip a breeze. Simply rent a desk from £3.00/day and head down to the bar for a much needed glass of wine. Check out the Vinoteq website and Coteq website for more information on events and coworking.

Elephant and Hind
Located on Market Square, Elephant and Hind is filled with music and community. Previously run as two separate public houses the ‘Walmer Castle Inn’ and the ‘Duchess of Kent’, Elephant and Hind has been a pub and pillar of the Dover community for almost 300 years.
The pub has glass doors that open directly onto market square and seating outside, breaking the barrier between the pub and the community. The history and location of this pub make this a great location for seekers of culture and entertainment.
Having live performances very frequently and at all times of day, Elephant and Hind is perfect for a night out or a family outing. With recent appearances from Cool Maniere and Steve Tozzer! Elephant and Hind has plenty of outdoor seating for those sunny afternoons and a beautifully decorated interior for chillier nights. Pop in and visit this summer for a guaranteed good time!
