family days out

Family days out at Blists Hill Victorian Town with a Beatrix Potter theme; Easter school holidays 13 – 28 April 

There are loads of activities planned for families visiting Blists Hill Victorian Town, one of the Ironbridge Gorge Museumsin Shropshire, this Easter school holiday. Some have a Beatrix Potter theme.

2018 marks a very special year for acrobats, clowns, jugglers and ringmasters everywhere - it’s 250 years since the circus was first born, right here in the UK! And as World Circus Day takes place on April 21st, we take a look at how UK acts sparked a global movement.

To celebrate the special 250th anniversary, circuses are travelling up and down the country to take their acts to more people than ever before. And combining amazing vintage and contemporary-style acts, from fire-eating to laser light shows, circuses offer a family-friendly, affordable day out for everyone.
