Celebrate summer in style at this year’s gem-studded Hatton Garden Festival.

The free one-day event gives you the chance to go behind-the-scenes of London’s oldest jewellery district and catch a rare glimpse into the world of jewellery design and production.

There’s even chance to witness a unique world record-breaking attempt. Students from Holts Academy of Jewellery will join forces to set a new Guinness World Record for the number of silver rings made in a fixed period of time. The rings will be hallmarked throughout the day before being sold for charity.

What’s more, for the first time ever the festival will be showcasing our collection of Mayoral regalia. The stunning compilation includes chains, badges and ceremonial maces dating back to 1901.

Other highlights at this year’s festival include:

• free jewellery-making workshops
• a gala garden tea party
• penny farthing riders
• jazz performers
• a seaside-themed children’s zone featuring swing boats, a Punch and Judy show and a pirate ship.
