The Emma 200 Festival celebrates the bicentenary of the publication of Jane Austen’s Emma in 1815 – the novel which praises Brunswick Square: Our part of London is so very superior to most others! The neighbourhood of Brunswick Square is so very different from almost all the rest. (Emma, Chapter 12).

The Friends of Brunswick Square invite you to join them for four days of activities in and around leafy Grade II listed Georgian Brunswick Square.

Thursday 10 to Sunday 13 September 2015
