Gloucester History Festival Spring Weekend

Gloucester History Festival Spring Weekend runs 12-14 April 2024

 Join thirty of the nation’s top historians and authors for a weekend of compelling events at Gloucester’s Blackfriars Priory, Britain’s oldest and most magnificent history festival venue built in 1239.  Leading medieval historian and broadcaster Dan Jones takes us back to the Battle of Agincourt, bestselling Empireland author Sathnam Sanghera  joins Kavita Puri to trace the legacies of the British Empire across the globe and Philippa Langley, who famously discovered Richard III under a Leicester car park, discusses her ground-breaking new evidence revealing that The Princes in the Tower may well have survived. Spearheaded by Festival President Janina Ramirez and supported by Festival Patrons David Olusoga and Michael Wood, the full programme is announced in February.
