Kenwood House invites you to experience 19th century entertainment at its finest at the Grand Victorian Fayre in the magnificent Kenwood grounds on Hampstead Heath.
Marvel at the horsemanship as our lady equestrians, both riding side-saddle, will compete alongside the gentlemen in games including polo, pig-sticking and the famous ‘teapot dash’. Who will go the fastest and jump the highest?
Visitors can take part in fun Victorian sideshows including traditional games; meet the redcoat soldiers; try their hand at Victorian dance and even get recruited for Queen Victoria's army!
