Festival of Thetford & Punjab 2024 Maharajah Duleep Singh Pop Up
Come and visit Ancient House Museum of Thetford Life, which will be opening its doors for free this weekend as part of the Festival of Thetford & Punjab. Enjoy a pop-up exhibition about Maharajah Duleep Singh which presents photographic images, archival documents, cartoons and text to tell the real story of ‘The Black Prince’. Plus explore Ancient House, a Tudor timber-framed merchant’s house given to the people of Thetford to become a museum by Prince Frederick Duleep Singh. Free Admission.
The Festival of Thetford & Punjab 2024 will take place in venues across Thetford in Norfolk, with cultural celebrations inspired by the life and legacy of the Duleep Singh family, the last Royal Family of the Punjab who lived in Elveden near Thetford. Join us in Thetford for talks, workshops, curry nights and activities for all to enjoy, as well as the Thetford Mela, the grand Festival Finale on Sunday.
