Summer Venue – Royal Agricultural University

Royal Agricultural University from the front lawn

Our summer residential event mirrors the Laetare winter event, running from Friday to Sunday at our venue, the Royal Agricultural University. A mix of buildings old and new are surrounded by peaceful sports fields and farmland, across the road from wooded parkland on the outskirts of Cirencester.

At both Winter and Summer venues all meals are included, and all dietary requirements are catered for. There is always time to explore the local area. We round off the weekends by giving an informal performance to a very select audience. There is plenty of time to chat, have a drink at the bar, do some informal singing, and prepare for our home-grown “cabaret” on Saturday evening, where anything goes.
