On 2nd September 2007, Stoke-on-Trent held it’s annual Festival in Tunstall Park.

Because of his extensive and long-term connections with Stoke and the surrounding area, Kendo was happy to appear at the Festival, at the invitation of Councillor David Conway, who is an unabashed Kendo fan!

Kendo arrived with his entourage in 3 vehicles, Kendo himself being chauffeured in his mint-condition Rolls Royce Silver Cloud III.

There was a wrestling tournament as one of the attractions, and Kendo agreed to bless the wrestling ring with his characteristic Ceremony of the Salt. Following this, Kendo signed autographs and allowed fans to have their pictures taken with him.
