About This Event

Lucy Worsley will give a talk titled My Royal Life: An Audience with Lucy Worsley at Assembly Rooms Edinburgh on 23 October 2026, reflecting on her experience as Chief Curator and her work in royal history.

Step into a glittering royal world with Lucy Worsley, beloved historian and bestselling author, who spent twenty years working as Chief Curator in some of Britain’s most marvellous palaces. Lucy wants to take you behind the scenes and into the history of the royal residences she came to know so well, from Hampton Court’s Haunted Gallery, to the gilded apartments of Kensington Palace. Along the way, we’ll meet some of Britain’s best-known queens and kings, and find out what Lucy really thinks of them. With her trademark warmth and scholarly sparkle, this evening will lift the lid on royal life over the centuries, introducing you to its pageantry and – sometimes – its pain. Prepare to be entertained, enlightened, and thoroughly charmed as Lucy reveals the secrets, stories, and splendours of Britain’s royal past.
