For 10 days since 2001, the pretty city of Bath pays tribute to the author who lived there. The festivities are numerous: costumed walks and balls, a parade of soldiers and a brass band, guided tours and walks, theatrical performances... Over 5,000 people come to enjoy a timeless atmosphere in the footsteps of Jane Austen. An immersive event that plunges you into the heart of the English Regency era. In 2025, the festival will celebrate the 250th anniversary of the author's birth, so it's sure to be a great event!
