This Easter, families visiting Hillsborough Castle and Gardens can look forward to a delightful experience as Go Fly Your Kite hosts engaging kite-making workshops on Easter Monday, April 21, and Easter Tuesday, April 22, 2025. Set against the backdrop of the castle's vibrant Spring Spectacular, these sessions offer a perfect blend of creativity, education, and outdoor fun.
Crafting Joy in the Castle Gardens
Participants will have the opportunity to build a kite from scratch, guided by the expert team from Go Fly Your Kite. These workshops are designed to be accessible and enjoyable for children and adults alike, providing easy-to-follow instructions and all necessary materials. Once assembled, attendees can decorate their kites, adding personal artistic touches before taking to the skies in the castle's expansive gardens.
