Here’s another one for the calendar:
If you have some time free in June, you can head to Alton and Chawton, Hampshire UK for the NINE days (yes, nine!) Jane Austen Regency Week. Supported by ticket sales, grants, sponsors, and advertising, the events cover everything from Regency balls, panels, and workshops. You can even rent your finery if you so choose.
The festival runs from June 16 – 24 beginning with a Regency day in Alton and ending on the 24th with a Regency Supper. There also balls, walks, teas, and fairs. Most of the events are free.
For more information, visit the festival’s website where you can find out the cost of tickets, lodging, and locations. You can also find them on Facebook.
