Sweeps is really a street dance fest. The gigs in the pubs are electric. There is no camping worthy of mention. The sinagrounds are not what they should be. The Good Intent is fair but too far out of town. I do NOT recommend it. Once upon a time it was WONDERFUL, but no longer.

Broadstairs I also do not recommend. The only camping is on the school site and you have to have a VERY expensive season or be on staff or a performer or with a booked side to get on there. The main street is chavsville. The pub gigs are electric rock thinly disguised as folk in some cases. The sessions/singarounds are overfull, scattered, run to rigid timeframes and not all that. Quite a lot of "Don't you dare join in with us". Not many good beersellers. A lot of the locals are unfriendly "How do you like freak-week, we hate it".

There was a good vibe this year from the wossname in the Marsh thing in Romney Marsh but I know little more.
