Beeston Castle & Woodland Park Summer Events

Beeston Castle & Woodland Park Summer Events

This summer, Beeston Castle and Woodland Park will be hosting an action-packed schedule of events for the whole family to enjoy. Knights Tournament, a flagship event from English Heritage, will take place alongside firm favourite, Medieval Life.

Medieval Life on the 22 and 23 July will showcase what Beeston will have been like at that time. Visitors will be able to step back in time and meet characters from the past and hear tales from centuries ago.

Later in the summer, 27 and 28 August, watch as rival knights compete in a Knights' Tournament. Watch as the winner is decided in the Grand Melee finale, before immersing yourself in medieval life in the encampment where you can meet people from the Middle Ages and witness life at camp.

Becky Eade, Head of Historic Properties at English Heritage commented: "We can't wait to welcome medieval knights to Beeston. With so much to do, the whole family will get lost in the world of warfare and chivalry. I am delighted that visitors to Beeston are going to get the chance to enjoy a spectacular event, as well as the Woodland Walk at a time in the year when it's at its best. '

As well as the fantastic events on offer, Beeston Castle and Woodland Park offers a spectacular day out. Families can explore the woodland, discover the Bronze Age roundhouse or peer down into England's deepest castle well.
