He's founded political parties, enjoys a pint and courts controversy on a regular basis, so would you like to spend An Evening with Nigel Farage?

The former leader of Ukip who was a leading figure in the campaign for the UK to leave the EU, announced earlier this month that he plans to leave politics for good.

But the Bromley born and bred politician is keeping himself busy public speaking, and will bring his An Evening With to Maidstone in July.

The co-founder of the UK Independence Party (UKIP) from 2006 to 2016, who failed to win a seat in South Thanet in the general election in 2015,befriended the then US president Donald Trump who dubbed him “Mr Brexit” in 2016. He has also provided political analysis for both the main Fox News channel and its sister channel Fox Business Network and hosted The Nigel Farage show on LBC.

So he should have plenty to talk about when he brings his show to Maidstone's Mercure Great Danes Hotel on Thursday, July 1.

For the price of a gold ticket of £165.25, you could have a photo with him; a glass of bubbly and chat with him before the show, and a signed item.

There will also be a Q&A with the audience. Standard tickets are £31.05.
