Dive into a festival of fun at Gibside, where play zones await around every corner. Make music with little ones in the Walled Garden or put on a show in the puppet theatre. Embark on a playful adventure to Green Close Field and challenge your family to active games. If you need a moment to unwind, relax at family yoga classes or weekly craft sessions. There are also weekly active sessions designed for children with special educational needs.

Seaton Delaval Hall, Seaton Sluice, Northumberland

Like a party from its Georgian heyday, expect the unexpected with pop up performances indoors and out at Seaton Delaval Hall this summer. Join drop-in circus activities, play sports, get musical with the recycled junk orchestra, or rummage for the perfect props and perform on the Baroque-inspired stage. Every Friday in the Community Kitchen Garden, there's the chance to plant, harvest and get crafty with nature.
