The Smyths bring their The Queen Is Dead 40th anniversary show to The Drill Shed in Margate on 17 October 2026. Focusing on the 1986 album in depth, the tribute band devote this gig to one of The Smiths’ defining records, giving fans a rare chance to hear its tracks gathered together in a single performance. With The Drill Shed’s intimate scale putting the songs close to the audience, the show turns a landmark release into a focused live set built around that era, rather than a broader greatest hits run-through.
