Another joyful Sonnet Walk weekend in Bury St Edmunds!
On Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 May 2011, Bury St Edmunds was once again descended upon by gangs of carnation-clutching Sonnet seekers as part of the Bury St Edmunds festival.
As they followed a special guided route around the town centre, audience members encountered a variety of performers who entertained them with renditions of Shakespeare’s sonnets.

Thanks to all involved for making it such a special experience.
