York is THE place to be with kids this summer! Bursting with family-friendly attractions and with a packed calendar of fun events for children, there’s something for every age, weather and budget (take a look at our guide to the summer holidays in York here). One of our top picks for kids is Piglets Adventure Farm, winner of the Little Vikings Awards for Best Attraction in 2023. They’re pushing out the boat this summer, with more activities than ever before. As well as all the usual Piglets fun, from the adventure playground to the maize maze, indoor play barn to the manmade beach, there’s a themed programme too. If you think you’ll go back a few times – and why wouldn’t you? – it’s worth taking a look at their new summer pass: £30 per person for unlimited visits throughout the summer. Read on to find out how you can win one of two passes!
