The Idler Festival [Hampstead, London] 11th - 13th. July
Friday 11 July 2025
The Idler Festival takes place every year in the beautiful surroundings of Fenton House [click for details] - a 17th-century house five minutes walk from Hampstead underground station with elegant rooms, formal gardens and an orchard next door. All these spaces will be used for talks, interviews, music, bookselling and dancing.
I shall be present for all three days, providing fantares and Baroque [Telemann and Scottish tunes] on Friday, the same on Saturday - with a little attic electronica from Sunken Gardens and a guest spot or two; on Sunday afternoon, I am bringing in a caller and a cellist from The Capability Consort for Regency Dancing - suitable for beginners, broadminded Morris fans and anyone Bridgerton-adjacent! These classes will be held on the lawn at 1 - 1.30, 2.15 - 2.45, and 4.45 - 5.15
