Child playing with sword and shield

About

This half-term, join Eltham Palace in the grounds for hands-on activities and family fun in the fresh air.

Meet Anne & George Boleyn at Eltham Palace and discover Anne's rise in the Tudor Court. Learn all about courtly etiquette and have a go at Tudor dancing. Try your hand at writing poetry and enjoy fun games.

There’s lots to see and do at Eltham Palace and Gardens this May half-term. Step inside Virginia Courtaulds’ wardrobe and try on 1930’s clothes, take shelter in the wartime basement bunker and see the home of Mah-Jong, the Courtaulds’ pet lemur. Let off steam in the wooden outdoor play area and relax in the beautiful glasshouse café.
