Haworth Steampunk Weekend is held every year since November 2013 (on each occassion as a charity event raising funds for Sue Ryder's "Manorlands" hospice in Oxenhope) the steampunk weekend is now a regular annual event for Haworth Village - attracting fans of the steampunk genre from far and wide !The steampunk genre "reimagines" Victorian and Edwardian science fiction (as typified by the works of e.g. H.G. Wells and Jules Verne) in a "retro-futuristic" style, but for those who are still wondering what steampunk is (and there seems to be quite a lot of you out there) there's a more detailed description of steampunk on Wikipedia at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steampunk
