Jane Austen has her own cult following and multiple opportunities to pretend you are hanging out with her characters.
Jane Austen Weekends offer you a chance to escape to Regency England in a beautiful old mansion where Jane herself would feel at home. https://www.onehundredmain.com/events/jane-austen-weekends/
The Jane Austen Festival in Bath England is in the autumn every year. It is the largest gathering of Jane Austen fans in the world. There are more than eighty events over ten days. You can visit the baths or dance at a masked ball. http://www.janeaustenfestivalbath.co.uk/
Jane Austen Evening features high tea and an evening ball. http://janeaustenevening.org/
Or perhaps you'd like to visit a wizarding school. Bothwell School of Witchcraft in East Sussex England hosts weekend-long role play opportunities for lovers of the Harry Potter universe but is based on an entirely different story world. https://www.bothwellschoolofwitchcraft.com/
There are other opportunities to role play different eras and beloved books. Investigate local events in towns near you or search for particular topics.
Check in next week as we take a look at Live Reenactments.
