Winchester Russian Circle is open to all who are interested in Russia, its people and its culture. It organises a wide range of talks, discussions and musical performances by distinguished artists. An event usually takes place at one venue and is followed by an informal supper at a member’s house, with all attending contributing food and drink. The yearly programme of events runs from January, with a summer break.

Membership costs £25 per annum for individuals (£15 students) and £35 for couples, plus £10 for concerts. Non-members are welcome to attend individual events at a charge of £5 for talks, £15 for concerts.
