Time: 18:00 - 20:30

Think scandal is all fantasy? Think again! At Delapré Abbey, the drama of Georgian high society wasn’t scripted—it was lived. Behind the elegant façades and glittering soirées lay a world of ambition, romance, and intrigue that shocked polite society.

👑 EVENT DETAILS
Join us for an evening that peels back the curtain on the real lives of the aristocracy. Follow the true story of Harriet Bouverie, a woman whose beauty and wit placed her at the heart of the Ton—and whose scandalous love affair with Lord Robert Spencer made headlines long before Whistledown ever put quill to parchment.

You will explore the Devonshire House Circle, where aristocrats, artists, and politicians mingled in a whirlwind of gossip, gambling, and glamour. This is a history tour with all the passion and drama you’d expect from a period drama—only every twist and turn really happened.

🍽️ WHAT TO EXPECT
Following the tour, guests will enjoy a delicious 2-course meal, making for a perfect evening of culture and cuisine. Book your place now and step into the world where the Ton was real, and the scandals unforgettable!

An AGMP Concerts presentation.
