At long last, the Mieville Historical Hunts Victorian Faire opens on Saturday, Sept. 7! Want the details? Read on!
First, here's a landing site that will take you just outside Regent Park. Enter the park and go to the Welcome gazebo, where you'll find info on two fun activities where you can win free prizes. Hunt and collect Victorian hats scattered about the site to earn points that you can trade in for free prizes. There is also a Sherlock Holmes Quest that will have you solving parts of a larger mystery every few days, with free prizes at the end of the Quest. Collect all the info on both of these activities, and have fun!
Just beyond the Welcome gazebo, you'll find six different streets filled with merchant shops! Friends, there are 50 shops for you to visit here! Our generous merchants have been working hard to bring you some nice products at nice prices, and also may have some free gifts for you to win! Some large shops are located near Trafalgar Square too. Be sure to visit all six streets and the Trafalgar Square area!
There are lots of ways to zip around the Victorian Faire site! First, there are portals here and there around the site to help you get to the shopping streets, Trafalgar Square, the dance court, the Palace Pier where there are rides, and back to the Welcome Gazebo. Just touch the portal, make your selection, and a-waaay you go! Easy peasy!
But wait — there's more! Treat yourself to a horse carriage ride and get a narrated tour of the Victorian Faire site! Up to three people can ride at a time, so bring some friends.
There's also a newfangled horseless carriage that you and friends can drive, plus photo op carriages including two for Dinkies.
Phew — there's so much more to do and see at the Victorian Faire but this post should help get you started! The Victorian Faire runs from Sept. 7 thru Sept. 22, so pace yourselves and visit everything and take in the beautiful site. Enjoy!
