Family Fun Day
Whirly. Wonderful. Smiles at the ready.
Step into a full-on day of family fun. The Concourse comes alive with games, music, bubbles and brilliant things to do.
It’s a big, bright Saturday packed with drop-in activities for every age. No booking, no pressure. Just pick what you fancy and join in the fun.
Watch bubbles float higher than the bairns. Be amazed by a roaming magician. Get your face painted, choose a colourful new braid, lose yourself in a story adventure with the National Literacy Trust or spin round the floor at our family céilidh.

All welcome, this is a totally free event. Just come on down.
Roaming magician
Keep your eyes peeled…
One minute they’re beside you, the next they’ve made something disappear. Expect mind-boggling tricks, plenty of laughs and a few moments that’ll have the grown-ups scratching their heads too.
Hair Braids
Braids. Bright colours. Big main-character energy.
Choose your colours, pick your style and let our braiders work their magic.
Not Just a Pretty Facepaint
One face. Endless possibilities.
Whether it’s whiskers, wings or a whole lot of glitter, our face painters have you covered.
Bubble Whisperer
Bubbles bigger than the bairns.
Watch giant bubbles float, shimmer and swirl through the air before stepping inside one yourself. Yes, really.
It’s part bubble show, part hands-on magic and guaranteed to have cameras at the ready.
Cèilidh
The band strikes up, the caller shouts ‘find a partner!’ and suddenly the whole room is spinning, skipping, swapping places and trying their best to ‘dos‑à‑dos’. No experience needed. The caller talks you through every step, every swirl, every ‘right, off you go!’
Come as a family, come as a swirling chain of cousins, just be ready to move.
