Event Details

There’s nothing like a trail to get kids walking without noticing (and therefore complaining), so we’re very excited about the launch of the new Zog trail at Dalby Forest. Already one of our favourite places to go, it’s about to get even more exciting for kids with this new trail, inspired by the Julia Donaldson classic, which opens on 11th January 2019.

Zog is a loveable but slightly inept dragon who becomes quite the hero, and children can step in his claw-prints at the forest classroom. Learn how animals fly, what sounds they make and how they catch their prey. As well as winning gold stars along the trail, there will be panels with a hidden image that children can find using a coloured lens in their activity pack. Available to buy for just £3, the activity pack will also include a Zog mask, activity sheets a pencil and stickers. A small price to pay for a fun and nag-free walk!

Event Details

Most dads (indeed, most humans) love bread, and a fair few of them have a soft spot for beer, too. So Fountains Abbey might just have the ideal event for Father’s Day weekend: Beer and Bread.

Fountains Abbey is collaborating with Leeds Indie Food to celebrate how beer and bread are made and enjoyed today. Beer and Bread will be a day time event included in general admission, featuring local street food, breweries and bakeries, as well as family games in the orchard and have-a-go-with-dough with Café 164.

You can learn about the history of the mill too: explore it at your own pace or join a free tour of the ruined monastic brewhouse and bakehouse to learn all about the industrious Cistercian monks.

What’s on and who’s coming?

There’ll be a chance to learn about the history of the Mill, take a tour of the monastic brewhouse and bakehouse, and have a go with dough. Check out some of the people coming below and check back in to see who else will be making an appearance.

Bad Seed Brewery, 15-16 June

Bad Seed brewery started out simply as two guys who loved beer and wanted to have a go brewing their own. They started developing their own recipes using a range of high quality ingredients and they tasted so good that they soon opened their own microbrewery based in Malton. They turned the town into a beacon for hand crafted, full flavour beers, including classic American IPAs and more interesting flavours like Rhubarb Crumble.

Los Antojitos, 22-23 June

This vegan Mexican style pop up makes hand-pressed corn tortillas, piling them high with a range of flavoursome food including BBQ Sweet Potato and Red Cabbage slaw, Seitan de Barbecoa Estilo Yucatan and Refried Pinto beans.

Sela Bar Pizza bus,15-16 June

Possibly the world’s most popular form of bread, this pizza is served from a 1996 Mercedes Vario. The Pizza Bus tours the country serving hand pulled pizza, including favourites truffle mushroom and chorizo.

Luigi Street Food, 22-23 June

Head over to Luigi’s where you can tuck into a range of fresh Italian food specialities. Cooked in small batches sample handmade pasta, bruschetta and other Italian delicacies full to bursting with flavour.

Doh Hut, 15-16 June

Do you like your dough savoury or sweet? Hand’s up for sweet! Doh Hut’s doughnuts are so good they won British Street Food of the Year award in 2018 with a large range of flavours to choose from. Flavours include the Creme Brûlée, which is a dough nut filled crème patissiere, which has torched caster sugar on top to create a caramel snap.

Event Details

The Oxford Shakespeare Company & Lamplighter Drama present a new adaption of Emily Bronte’s ‘Wuthering Heights’.

April De Angelis’ adaption of Bronte’s renowned classic will reignite the passionate & spellbinding tale of forbidden love, performed live in the Gardens of Castle Howard from 26th – 30th June 2019.

Set on the wild, windswept Yorkshire moors, Wuthering Heights is the tempestuous story of free-spirited Catherine and dark, brooding Heathcliff. As children running wild and free on the moors, Cathy and Heathcliff are inseparable. As they grow up, their affection deepens into passionate love, but Cathy lets her head rule her heart as she chooses to marry wealthy Edgar Linton. Heathcliff flees broken-hearted, only to return seeking terrible vengeance on those he holds responsible, with epic and tragic results.

Performances will take place daily at 7.30pm from 26th – 30th June 2019. Matinee performances will also take place at 2.30pm on Thursday 27th, Saturday 29th & Sunday 30th June 2019.
