Canterbury BID Networking takes place once a month in a variety of different venues. This gives local businesses an opportunity to showcase their establishment and activities to other local business members. Each month sees between 50-60 members come together for an informal, relaxed and sociable gathering. It’s a great opportunity to get to know fellow professionals in Canterbury.
PLEASE NOTE: These sessions are open to Canterbury BID Businesses only. Spaces are limited to 2 per business, unless availability allows. If you are outside the BID area, but would like to become a voluntary member, CLICK HERE to find out more.

Online Networking in 2021
Through Spring to Autumn 2021, we hosted monthly networking sessions via Zoom. Each session welcomed over 50 local business representatives, and showcased local products including a chocolate tasting with Madame Oiseau, beer tasting with Shepherd Neame and gin tasting with The Foundry – cheers to that!
