What are you doing this coronation? North Essex Transformed are hosting their second event of the year (following a very successful launch) with their Festival of the Common People - offering an alternative to the royal coronation mania with their 'history from below'.
Head to one of Colchester's best loved pubs, grab a pint and hear about Eric Hobsbawm, Rodney Hilton, Dorothy Thompson and more - plus enjoy poetry, singing, and a 'republican raffle'(!?)
What could be a better way to spend the day? Grab your ticket - they're nearly sold out!
