Special offers for visitors and schools at Alnwick Castle this September
Alnwick Castle is reinforcing its commitment to community and education with two initiatives.
Northumberland residents are invited to rediscover the history, heritage, and magic of one of the UK’s most iconic castles with an exclusive 25% discount on admission this month.
From its role as a medieval fortress and stately home of the Percy family, to its starring appearances in blockbuster films and TV series, Alnwick Castle has something to inspire visitors of all ages.
The discount offer applies until September 30 on standard tickets. Proof of residency and photographic ID must be shown at the admissions desk. All tickets will be valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.
As part of Northumberland Estate’s ongoing commitment to education, their team is also offering free educational visits to Alnwick Castle for schools within the NE65 and NE66 postcodes.
Teachers can choose from a range of engaging workshops and activities designed to bring subjects to life, from medieval history to art, storytelling, and castle life. The offer aims to strengthen local links and ensure that young people in the community benefit directly from the Castle’s cultural and educational resources.
Daniel Watkins, Alnwick Castle’s education, learning and engagement officer, said: “Alnwick Castle has been at the heart of Northumberland’s history and heritage for centuries, and we’re proud to share that story with the local community.
“These offers are our way of giving back – encouraging residents to enjoy the castle for themselves and giving local schoolchildren the chance to learn in one of the most inspiring classrooms imaginable.” Email [email protected] to find out more
