Jane Austen Festival 2025

We look forward to welcoming you to the 24th annual Jane Austen Festival.

The 2025 Jane Austen Festival will take place from 
Friday 12th to Sunday 21st September 2025

On December 16th 1775 Jane Austen was born in Steventon Hampshire. 2025 marks 250 years since this remarkable author came into the world. To celebrate this momentous year in Austen history the Jane Austen Festival will be holding some extra special events throughout the 2025 year, in addition to the ten days of Jane Austen themed events which make up the September Jane Austen Festival. 

The full programme of events has not yet been released. Tickets will go on sale in Spring 2025.

While we are all dreaming of Regency dancing, some tantelising nuggets of information about the 2025 September Festival we can share with you, are that we will be holding a minimum of three dance events over the first weekend...

12th September

13th September

14th September

And we will be hosting a ball in the 

Pump Rooms on Friday 19th September 2025.

Finally, we are pleased to announce that we will be holding a large-scale, outdoor, Sense & Sensibility-themed event on the evening of Sunday 14th September 2025. The contents of this one will be kept secret for a little while longer however.

We are sure that many of you are desperate for more whispers of what we’re planning for 2025, the 250th anniversary of Austen’s birth, so we are delighted to announce our 2025 Programme cover/poster. Picked for its affinity to Jane Austen’s blue dress portrait, and the gorgeous serenity of the dancer during this year’s Assembly Rooms Ball.

You may also notice we have had a slight logo update, to tie in with the very special 250th anniversary of the year Jane Austen was born.

That’s right- you’re not seeing double - for the first time ever we have not one but two Summer Balls ! In 2024, tickets were snapped up within five minutes of going on general sale. So, with 2025 being a big Austen birthday year, we have added an extra date to give more people a chance to join in the celebrations. 

TICKET PRICES & ON SALE DATES ARE TO BE CONFIRMED...
