Be a King for a day at Newcastle Castle

FREE all day workshop for age 7-12! 

Join us at Newcastle Castle for an unforgettable experience this summer holiday. Train to be a knight, cook authentic historic food, learn a medieval song or two, practice medieval games and crafts, and much more medieval fun.

Food: Healthworks Newcastle will be on hand to supply a hot, healthy lunch for all participants at 12:30pm each day. They will also offer nutritional information and education.

Duration: 10am – 3pm, lunch 12:30pm – 1:15pm

Suitability: Activities and workshops are best suited to children aged 7-12. The sessions are based in the medieval Castle Keep, which is a Grade 1 listed building with steep stair cases, so unfortunately accessibility is limited. If you have any access needs please contact us beforehand to discuss.

If you have any food allergies, intolerances or dietary needs please let us know when you book so that we can accommodate you.

Location: Meet at the Harbottle Suite on the 2nd floor of the Black Gate between 9:45am and 10am. Activities will take place throughout the Castle site. Castle staff will be on hand to guide you during your visit.

Please note, all children must be accompanied by an adult at all times during this event.
