Aunt Josephine invites Anne and Diana to visit her and attend the Exhibition, which is like a giant fair.
Diana schemes to have her parents to ask Marilla so she'll let Anne go.
Marilla relents, just like she has recently relented on fashionable clothes. (Anne has a bunch of them now.)
The Exhibition is fun—Anne and Diana watch Avonlea folks win prizes for cooking and farming. They also watch a horse race and have their fortunes told.
They get to sleep in Aunt Josephine's spare room, but it's a disappointment compared to the majesty of spare rooms in Anne's imagination.
The next night, they see a singer perform opera, which makes Anne cry. Then they eat ice cream.
