Mrs. Dalloway Day

Mrs. Dalloway's Bookstore

Centennial Event

14 May 2025

Berkeley, USA

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the publication of Mrs. Dalloway (1925), Mrs. Dalloway’s Bookstore in Berkeley hosted a lively and imaginative celebration. The event featured an all-day public reading of Virginia Woolf’s iconic novel and welcomed readers of all ages with refreshments, Woolf-themed discounts, and engaging activities. Guests were invited to take selfies with costumed figures of Virginia Woolf and Clarissa Dalloway, and to join a costume contest for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate. The shop also offered 20% off on all Virginia Woolf titles and Mrs. Dalloway-branded merchandise. Designed as both a literary homage and a community event, the celebration highlighted Woolf’s continuing resonance in contemporary culture.
