This was supposed to go up on Benophie Week but Life Happened.

Dearest Gentle Reader,

The chandeliers have been polished to a gleam, the kite laid carefully beside silk gloves and ribbons, and the final invitations sealed with wax and ribbon. At long last, the prompts for Benophie Week 2026 are ready to be revealed.

Over eight enchanting days, we invite you to step into a celebration of the hidden identities, stolen dances, lingering glances across crowded rooms, and the kind of love that transported us all. Inspired by the romance of our beloved Sophie Baek and Benedict Bridgerton, each prompt has been chosen by you, our honoured guests, to capture the magic, mystery, and devotion at the heart of their story.

So consider this your invitation to the festivities.

The ballroom awaits. The orchestra is poised to begin. The wedding march is about to begin.

We cannot wait to witness the dazzling creations that emerge once the festivities commence.

Yours in joyful anticipation,

The Benophie Week Team 🏡

Dearest Gentle Reader,

There are some love stories that do not simply pass through a season… they linger. Softly, steadfastly, and entirely unforgettable.

So it is with the tale of Sophie Baek and Benedict Bridgerton, a romance cherished in every telling, whether upon the page, upon the screen, or in the hearts of those who hold them dear.

As we prepare for Benophie Week 2026 (12th–19th June), we invite you to help shape a celebration worthy of such devotion. A collection of prompts awaits your choosing, each one an opportunity to honour a love where longing lingers and love dares to be seen.

Your voice, as ever, is essential.

Consider this your invitation to add a brushstroke to the canvas, or a careful hand to the plan, by completing the Google Form below, and help us craft a week that reflects the tenderness, yearning, and quiet courage at the heart of their story.

Benophie Week 2026

Your Choices for 2026 Benophie Week!

Yours in quiet anticipation,

The Benophie Week Team

so after much thought and deliberation Benophie Week 2024 is going to go ahead but i've moved it a little later, only by a few days but I am hoping that by starting it on their wedding anniversary, 3 days after Part 2 is released, more people will be inclined to join in!!

So Part ONE of Benophie Week 2024 will run June 16th to June 20th.

Part TWO will come once we know When/If Benophie are Season 4 and I'll start to make arrangements so when we get our announcement of WHO is going to be playing Sophie, we will have a little Sophie Week to celebrate our long suffering and joy!

I look forward to seeing your works and if you're posting to AO3 please use the following collection

Benophie Week Collection

so without further ado... i give you the rules and prompts for Benophie Week 2024 Part 1

[historylaura]

Going to do what I can for Benophie Week.
