Trick or Treat

On Friday 30 October, our historic homes will awaken for All Hallows’ Eve… Step into the lamplight, knock if you dare, and meet our kindly hosts with treats on offer… and of course, the odd little trick. (You wouldn’t have it any other way!) Join us for this very special, family event, perfect for children aged 4 to 11. The ‘Trick or Treat Experience’ lasts approximately 45–60 mins, but make sure you leave extra time for a hot drink and cupcake too (included in all tickets). Please note: the Museum is closed on Fridays and will only be open for this event. There will be no other access to the museum that day. Annual passes are not valid for this event.
