This February, The Bishop’s Palace will kick off its annual children’s activities programme with a fun-filled February Half Term.

February half-term fun at the Roman Baths, Fashion Museum and Victoria Art Gallery.
Families can enjoy fun, hands-on activities every day over February half-term at Bath & North East Somerset Council’s museums.

Wherever you go in the UK, you’ll be sure of a fantastic time with a wide range of activities and attractions to keep you entertained, but there are of course, a few big things you need to experience, so make sure these are in your diary.

Christmas Markets have been growing in popularity over the past few years and now, you can’t go to a city centre during November and December without seeing brightly lit chalets selling a whole range of interesting gifts and the delicious smells of mulled wine and roasting chestnuts.
 

If you’re looking for some interesting things to do this Christmas season, then you have come to the right place. Pretty much the moment Halloween is over, you’ll notice shops and attractions will start putting up their Christmas decorations and playing the Buble Christmas hits on repeat.

This October half term, why not head into Bath and take advantage of discounts and free entry at all the Council run museums across Bath and the neighbouring areas? Discover a whole host of events taking place at museums all over the region. 

Every September, 5,000 events are hosted across the country to celebrate the fantastic history and culture that can be found right here in the UK. It is your chance to see hidden places and try new experiences all for free! 

What could be better, you’re on your jolly holidays, you’ve got loads to do, the sun is shining and you want to take in the culture. Don’t worry though, you don’t have to sacrifice being outside to enjoy a bit of theatre, especially not in London, where you can join in an open air performance, and the best bit? Some of them are free.

Did you spot lots of statues of Gromit from the award-winning Wallace and Gromit popping up on the internet and wonder how you can find one? Well, your chance has come again as Bristol is once again home to a whole host of Gromit statues.
