A perfect Day Out for Families this Summer Holidays
With the Summer holidays just around the corner, it’s time to plan how you will spend those six weeks of Summer catering for children full of excitement and endless energy.
At World of Wedgwood, we understand the fun that the Summer Holidays can bring, whilst recognising that the unwavering expectation placed upon families for non-stop fun can be a LOT. That is why when we created our Summer What’s On programme, we considered the accessibility of our offerings for all the family.
Outdoor Activities
For those looking for a Summer filled with outdoor activities, we have our newly introduced, Summer 2024, Garden Games. Simply ask one of our Wedgwood Interactors at our front desk for access to our free garden games and spend the day sitting back and relaxing with refreshments from our Courtyard Café whilst your little ones burn off some of that excess energy. We’ve got you.
Also in our courtyard, we have our much-loved Fun Fridays, in collaboration with local charity Hoglets, returning on selected Fridays throughout Summer. A perfect activity for your curious little ones, Fun Fridays will be host to nature activities, animal talks and maybe even the occasional special spikey visitor.
Crafts, Coffee & Cake...
If our much-loved British Summer decides not to play ball, head into Josiah & Co, also found in our World of Wedgwood Courtyard, to get creative and make a craft to take home! If you are feeling a little peckish you can also treat yourself to their delicious selection of freshly baked sweet treats.
V&A Wedgwood Collection: Wedgwood Wednesday
Conquer that mid-week slump with Wedgwood Wednesdays, a free drop-in V&A led activity. Running every Wednesday in the Summer Holidays, Wedgwood Wednesdays will focus on family-friendly crafts, with special guest artists on selected days.
Clay Club: Factory Tour
For an engaging and educational element to your summer plans, why not join our Clay Club: Factory Tour. Your young ones will learn all about Wedgwood on their journey around our 1940s factory, where they'll discover teapot spouts, lids, and handles to make up their very own collage teapot.
Pottery Painting
For your little artists, a visit to our Creative Studios is a must. With activities ranging from Pottery Painting to our Clay Club: Potter’s Wheel Class, create a memoir of your Summer of fun at World of Wedgwood. You can also have a go at throwing your own pot with our Clay Studio Taster Session because you deserve to join in on the fun too!
Feeling Peckish?
If you are looking for a special treat this Summer, book our family-friendly Afternoon Tea in the Wedgwood Tea Rooms. Our Little Gardeners Afternoon Tea is a delightful miniature Afternoon Tea, with a selection of sandwich triangles, sweet treats, and a little theatre with an edible plant pot- a treat to keep the children entertained whilst you sit back and relax in beautiful surroundings.
Summer Fun
End your summer of fun at our biggest event of the year: Future Fest 2024. Expect a day filled with live music acts, a DJ, immersive shows, activities for the kids, delicious street food, Caribbean steel drums and so much more!
For a day out that all the family will enjoy, Discover, Experience & Create at World of Wedgwood this Summer.
We can’t wait to see you all.
