1940's weekend at Haworth

This page is dedicated to those whom wish to view, post or just enjoy the events in which took place at the 1940's weekend at Haworth.

Every springtime the village of Haworth in the heart of West Yorkshire's Bronte Country hosts a very special 1940s weekend (organised by the Haworth Village Association), with locals and visitors alike getting togged up in 1940s gear to enjoy a wide range of nostalgic events - which usually include a RAF vintage plane flypast, a morale boosting visit from "Sir Winston Churchill" and even the "Queen Mother" - as well as spivs peddling their wares and authentic swing jive and Lindy Hop dancing being performed both in the streets during the day and at specially arranged dances which are held at local dance halls and pubs in the evenings.
