Archaeology Discovery at Chesters Roman Fort. My 10 yr old daughter loves searching for treasure, she has a small collection of broken crockery (Argos, circa 1996!) that she found in our garden and would be so excited to explore a real dig site.
We would love to visit VICTORIA'S FABULOUS GARDEN PARTY Osborne, Isle of Wight, because my little girl loves exploring outside and looking at flowers as well as cake
Seen this too late but the Battle Bug Hunt sounds like it would have been perfect for my girls age 9 and 6. We've been meaning to go and see the new playground and visitor centre there for ages. I'm going to keep an eye out for similar things in the summer holidays!
Jousting at Beeston Castle Sounds like something my son Jacob age 12 would love
The "JOUST! TOURNAMENT AND MELEE" at Beeston Castle, Cheshire, Sun 27 & Mon 28 May Sounds just perfect for my 11 year old son. He's watched lots of jousting in films but would love to see it for real.

My children would love to attend the 'Creepy Crawly Castle' at Kenilworth Castle because they are fascinated by animals, especially anything strange or exotic, and I think the setting would be perfect to make a whole day of fun.
There’s way too many cool events to choose from but I’d probably be a bit selfish and take them to Dracula at Whitby Abbey, North Yorkshire. Mostly because we’re from Yorkshire as well and secondly, well because vampires

VICTORIA'S FABULOUS GARDEN PARTY - It sounds and looks like a fantastic time for all the family
We went to CASTLE OF LEGEND in Cornwall and had a amazing time. My son loved the circus skills
