Family events return for half term at Kenilworth Castle

Families are invited to events at Kenilworth Castle this week to give children the chance to soak up some history and some sunshine during the half term break.

As advertised in Nub News' What's On section, the kids are in charge at Kenilworth Castle between 1 – 6 June with fun-filled 'Kids Rule!' activities all week.

The medieval theme continues at Kenilworth with a chance for budding young knights to test their sword skills and discover the tales of the real life child kings Henry II, Richard II, and Henry VI who really did rule the roost.

The whole family will enjoy exploring the castle, climbing the towers, and making the most of some action packed time fun in an awe-inspiring setting.

Matt Bulford, English Heritage's Head of Historic Properties for the West Midlands, said: "We are all incredibly excited to welcome our members and visitors back to events at Kenilworth Castle.

"Our re-enactors and performers are ready and waiting to share some much-needed cheer with the public over the half term holidays – and whilst visits will feel a little different, with social distancing and other measures to ensure everyone's safety, the welcome from our team will be warmer than ever."

All events have been organised to enable social distancing and with increased hygiene measures in place. To ensure a safe and enjoyable visitor experience, a limit on visitor numbers has been introduced and both members and non-members must book in advance for a specific date and time slot via the English Heritage website.
