FREE Outdoor Play Day at Eureka!

There will be stories, go-karting, face painting, den building and more – and it’s all free!

Eureka! has teamed up with Calderdale Play Development Service on Wednesday, August 1, for fun family day in the Eureka! Park.

Highlights include:

• Ben Gate and his giant percussion sound sculpture
• Story sessions with the brilliant Gacko and Ian Douglas
• Go-Karting, assault course and a high climbing wall
• Den-building and face painting

After playing outside Eureka, head over to The Piece Hall to celebrate Yorkshire Day AND the anniversary of its reopening with even more family fun.

There will be live music from vintage swing band Jump Jive and Wail and drop-in family activities between 10.30am and 3pm, costing £3.

Join in with face painting, a Giant Yorkshire Rose artwork, a Georgian photo booth and crafts at the Activity Cart, along with traditional games.

The courtyard will also be transformed into a community street party with bunting, long tables and pop up food and drink vendors.

• Normal Eureka! museum admission still applies (or use your annual pass if you have one) if you wish to go inside the museum.
