Ludlow History Festival

Available for over a year

Step back in time as the town’s remarkable past comes alive with medieval villages, live music, theatre, comedy, storytelling, guided walks and hands-on activities. Explore Ludlow Castle as it transforms into a bustling medieval settlement, see vintage cars at Ludlow Brewery or dance the night away at a Regency Ball in the stunning St Laurence’s Church. With everything from ancient history and royal connections to colourful characters and forgotten stories, there’s a chance to discover Ludlow’s past around almost every corner. Jess Laurie from Ludlow Assembly Rooms told Clare Ashford what to expect as the festival starts.
