Summer of Play

There’s lots of fun to be had this summer at Dunham Massey. What to look out for: North Park Play Hub - the main hub for Summer of Play. Giant deckchairs and tiny tipis take over the North Park. Clamber on the log pile, have a go at giant games or let imaginations run free with nature around you as the stage. How will you play today? Picnic and Play in the garden - Discover games on the lawn or find and conquer the mount! When you need a break, borrow a blanket or lounge on a deckchair as you enjoy a snack surrounded by seasonal blooms.

More about Town's Gate

Greater Manchester, England

The Toy House has been hosting its own little shows for years, while community groups pop up regularly to keep things moving. It really does feel like a proper neighbourhood spot where everyone knows the neighbours. You can find a comedy night or a local art display without needing to hunt through a dozen screens. We pull all the good news into one place so you don't waste time scrolling on a Sunday evening. Just open the page and see what is waiting for you round the corner.
