Giant monsters are set to take over Maidstone
As part of a brand-new family attraction coming to the town.
One Maidstone BID, supported by Maidstone Borough Council, is launching Maidstone's Monster Mash, an exciting trail that will see a collection of larger-than-life inflatable monsters take over prominent town centre locations.
Whilst there is a bit of a wait before giant monsters descend on the town this October half-term, people are already being invited to get involved by designing Maidstone's official Monster Mascot. From giant tentacled space squid to fluffy bug-eyed beasts, organisers want to see the town's most imaginative monster ideas brought to life.
With entries closing at the end of August, the team will have enough time to bring the winning creation to life as the official mascot for Maidstone's Monster Mash and featured throughout the event and promotional campaign.
Entry forms can be downloaded from here Maidstone-Monster-Madness.pdf or collected from Creative Maidstone Community Arts Hub. Entries can also be emailed to info@onemaidstone.com.
The closing date for entries is 5pm on Friday 28 August 2026.
