Of course, most people who come to Stratford-Upon-Avon do so because they want to learn more about William Shakespeare, England’s greatest playwright. But did you know that the town didn’t become the tourist attraction it is today until around 150 years after Shakespeare’s death?
In 1769, David Garrick, himself a talented playwright and actor, organised a major Shakespeare Jubilee over three days. This sparked an influx of tourists to the Bard’s hometown that continues to this day.
Stratford-Upon-Avon also offers the perfect base from which to explore some of the finest Tudor mansions in the country, including Kenilworth Castle and Kirby Hall – ideal for any groups studying the Tudor period, the Golden Age and the Reformation.
