CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF KENT’S TOP LUXURY LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE
BACK IN 2010 I LAUNCHED insideKENT WITH THE PURPOSE IN MIND TO APPEAL TO A WIDE AUDIENCE
OF KENT RESIDENTS, BRINGING THE BEST IN LOCAL NEWS, FOOD & DRINK, DAYS OUT, ENTERTAINMENT,
ARTS & CULTURE, GETAWAYS AND MORE, IF IT WAS LUXURY OR KENTISH IT WAS IN!
Looking back across the county over the last 10 years we have been graced with
some of the finest restaurants and food and drink producers putting Kent firmly
on top of the culinary map. There has been mass regeneration in a lot of towns
and along the coast which has brought a lot of visitors, tourists and new residents
to the Garden of England.
Social media has been a key area for extending the coverage of insideKENT
over the last few years, bringing a new following and also keeping in touch
with amazing businesses and all things new coming to the county which we love
to support.
insideKENT has grown rapidly from a bi-monthly publication in the first few years
to a monthly magazine which regularly boasts over 180 pages of the best content.
Put together inhouse by our hard
working, ever growing iKHQ team,
who are a joy to have working in our
new office at Ashford’s creative hub -
Coachworks.
We are proud to be the first and only
free-to-read luxury publication that is
distributed county-wide and partnered
with Visit Kent!
The team and I are truly passionate
and fully focused on continuing our
championing of our great county for
the next decade and well beyond -
here’s to the next 10 years!
But before we move totally forward
it’s always great to reflect too, and so
we have taken some of our first articles
from our very first issue, way back in
the summer of 2010, and updated
them a decade on…
As always - happy reading Kent!
