Britain's What's On Event Guide
The History Festival At Hever Castle
Join us at The History Festival at Hever Castle for a captivating journey through one of the most dramatic and transformative periods in history, with your favourite historians and authors. This year, we are exploring Tudor and Stuart history, bringing the 15th, 16th, and 17th centuries to life with an exciting programme of talks, Q and A’s, and book signings from an incredible line up of speakers.
Our festival offers a unique opportunity to explore the people, power struggles, and cultural shifts that shaped the modern world. Whether you’re a lifelong history enthusiast or newly curious about this fascinating era, come and be inspired, informed, and thoroughly entertained.
The Festival Theatre are hugely grateful for the support from the Hever Castle curatorial team, Dr Owen Emmerson and Kate McCaffrey for programming these events.
Each event is a double-bill, with two talks given by two or more historians in our relaxed theatre setting. You are welcome to enjoy the castle gardens between events or book a joint castle gardens and theatre ticket to enjoy the estate for longer. Castle entry tickets can be purchased on the day of your visit.
