Sittingbourne FC is inviting supporters, players, and staff to join an end-of-season celebration on Saturday 23 May 2026 at The Staxson Stadium in Kent. The event offers the community a chance to review the club’s performance over the past year, with festivities set to begin with doors opening at 6:30pm and formal presentations following at 7:30pm.

The celebration will feature a DJ, light refreshments, and an awards ceremony to recognise individual and team achievements. While the event is free to attend, the club requires that all supporters book their tickets in advance online.

The gathering comes as the team, nicknamed the Brickies in reference to the town’s history of brick-making, concludes a competitive season. Under the leadership of manager Reece Prestedge, who was appointed in November 2025, the club is currently fighting for a play-off spot in the Isthmian League South East Division. As of mid-April 2026, the team sits in fifth place.

Founded in 1886, the club is now 140 years old and continues to host its matches at the venue on Broadoak Road. Following a recent health and safety assessment, capacity at the ground has been limited to 1,300 spectators.
