It's the second week of June which can only mean one thing in - its festival time! The town's has been held annually since 1937 and this year's no different on the 12th-14th (Friday-Sunday). As ever will be taking part, with our wonderful volunteers and The Broadstairs Dickens Declaimers taking center stage - keep an eye on our Facebook and Instagram throughout the week for more details!
As for this picture, we think its from the early 1960s, its Dickens House before it became a museum. However, the house was often open to the public even then, our earliest guide book dates back to the 1930s! And just look at those costumes 😍
Normal admission charges apply to the museum, there is no additional charge for the performances. Wider festival details can be found here https://www.broadstairsdickensfestival.co.uk/events
