Come join the fun and splendid madness at the K&ESR Steampunk Saturday!
What is Steampunk?
In a sentence, Steampunk is Victorian Science fiction brought to life!
Imagine the fascinating works of H.G. Wells mixed with favourite fandoms like Doctor Who and brought together with a splendidly quirky pseudo-Victorian wardrobe.
The phrase "Steampunk" was founded in 1987 by K.W. Jeter, a fantasy and science fiction author, with the idea being a fictional future World built from the Victorian Industrial age, an alternate history filled with technologies, mechanical marvels and fantastical inventions utilising the power of Steam. As time has passed the Steampunk movement has evolved and grown into an amazing community of Splendid people who love exploring the genre with fashion, literature, movies, music, games, and hobbies.
Often recognised by our Top Hats and Goggles we express ourselves through of love of Steampunk combining the Victorian, fantasy styles with our hobbies, occupations, and passions with a joint love of CAKE!
As much as Steampunk is about the Aesthetic and imagery, a huge part of Steampunk is about being Splendid to one another, embracing our diverse communities and having lots of silly fun together. We do our best to spread our good cheer and invite everyone to get involved.
Try your hand at Tea Duelling (competitive biscuit dunking) and learn all about Familiar Flinging, explore the Steampunk stalls, enjoy a pot of tea and CAKE at Bodiam Station, there will be lots to see and do!
