Buckinghamshire History Festival 2021

Well, that’s a wrap for the Buckinghamshire History Festival 2021!

Thank you to all the wonderful historians who made the festival so memorable by talking at our live events or recording podcasts – and thank you to everyone who came along to enjoy the delights on offer!

And a massive thank you and goodbye to Katherine in the Bucks Archives Team who has been the leading light behind the Bucks History Festival since its inception, and now moves on to pastures new.

The festival ran from Saturday 30 October to Saturday 27 November. Once again things mainly took place online, though the format changed from 2020 with the introduction of Zoom events.

Over the month of the festival, we posted a new collection of podcasts to add to the archive we started building last year, and these are available on the ‘Listen’ section of the site.

But the special feature of this year’s festival was the series of very popular live online events via Zoom that were free to attend.
