A blast to the past – the return of Buckinghamshire History Festival!

Buckinghamshire History Festival returns this November for its 10th annual celebration of the county’s rich history and cultural heritage.

Organised by Buckinghamshire Archives, the festival brings together the Archives team and partner organisations from across the county to present a wide range of events throughout the month. From historic walks and traditional corn milling demonstrations to online talks and creative performances, the festival offers something for everyone.

Peter Brazier, Buckinghamshire Council’s Cabinet Member for Culture & Leisure, said:

“This annual event is a great opportunity to join with partner organisations to showcase our county’s fascinating history, heritage and rich culture. The month-long festival provides residents with lots of chances to be inspired and entertained by Buckinghamshire’s history through a series of online and in-person events.

“I’d encourage everyone to check out the full listing of events happening throughout November and to follow @BucksArchives on Facebook, X and Instagram.”

Buckinghamshire Archives is home to the county’s historic memory, holding a unique collection of documents spanning over 800 years. Its local studies collection is the largest of its kind dedicated to Buckinghamshire, including maps, deeds, photographs, parish registers and family history resources such as Ancestry.
