The last of six consecutive nights of concerts by The Beatles at Margate’s Winter Gardens took place on 13 July 1963. They played to two ‘houses’ each time.
The Beatles’ repertoire contained nine songs: ‘Roll Over Beethoven’, ‘Thank You Girl’, ‘Chains’, ‘Please Please Me’, ‘A Taste Of Honey’, ‘I Saw Her Standing There’, ‘Baby It’s You’, ‘From Me To You’, and ‘Twist And Shout’.

My first actual Concert, great atmosphere, but couldn`t hear them because of the screaming lol.
It was also my first concert. The volume of screaming was something to behold.
A man I used to work with saw the Beatles at the Winter Gardens Margate in 1963. He said when the Beatles appeared on stage all the girls started to scream. He thought, “They’ll calm down in a minute.” They didn’t, they kept up the screaming the whole time. He said it was a shame because you couldn’t hear The Beatles.
