Afternoon tea with the officers of the Steampunk Sallys
Saturday 24 August at 1PM
Come and join General Anna Bollick and Sister Anna Key, officers of the Steampunk Sallys, for afternoon tea with a difference.
There may be big frocks, ‘innocent’ laughter and there will certainly be plenty to eat and drink.
When booking any of the afternoon tea parties you will have the opportunity to pre-order a glass of 'fizz' on arrival.
If you're coming to afternoon tea with the Sallys you might want to hold your fizz discretely out of their view when they come to ply you with their tales of salvation!

Early Evening Supper Clubs
Thursday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday evenings
One of the tricky parts of attending the Asylum can be finding a way to fit in an evening meal between the excitement of the daytime and the excitement of the evening while still having a short rest and/or changing your outfit.
​
Last year the wonderful people at the County Assembly Rooms came up with a solution and offered series of 'Supper Clubs' running from 6 PM to 8 PM on Thursday, Saturday,Sunday and Monday evenings and they were a gfreat success.
​
We are delighted that they have agreed to do the same for hungry steampunks again at Asylum XIV.
​​​​
You can attend the supper club whether or not you are attending an evening event that is also on at the Assembly Rooms the same night, so long as you have an Asylum Festival wristband.

Tickets must be purchased in advance from the links below where you will find details of the menu for each evening.
