Band of Hope Fete in Aston Park, Birmingham, 1858. Creator: Unknown
Band of Hope Fete in Aston Park, Birmingham, 1858. 6000 children attend a festival. A programme was drawn up for the amusements, which included a vontriloquial entertainment, a "temple of magic, " balloon ascents, and races; and a veritable Punch and Judy show. A small charge was made for admission to the more pretentious entertainments, and they were well patronised. Several bands were engaged for the occasion. At the park athletic games and exercises were provided for the children; while, dotted about in various parts, were tents for refreshments, tents for the bands, and tents for exhibitions. The hall, with its collection of art-treasures, was thrown open for the delectation of the juveniles, at a nominal charge. But the clouds, which had for some time portended a fall of rain, began to dissolve, and during nearly the remainder of the day there was a drenching rain. The youngsters, however, held bravely on. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
