Join us at 'Pemberley' for a 'Pride and Prejudice' themed Summer ball, falling on the same weekend as our 'Celebrating Jane Austen' event. 

Begin the evening with a glass of 'Pemberley Fizz' served in the Painted Hall, followed by the opportunity for a self-guided tour of the north wing, which includes the Library, the Great Dining Room and the Sculpture Gallery, home to our Veiled Vestal sculpture by Monti. 

Both the Painted Hall and Sculpture Gallery were featured in Joe Wright's 2005 film adaptation of 'Pride and Prejudice' starring Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen. 

Have your own Elizabeth Bennet moment, our Fitzwilliam Darcy bust (main image) and Veiled Vestal sculpture will be on display in the Sculpture Gallery.
