Summer of Play at Dyffryn Gardens: Around the World Adventures
Join Reg and Flo for a summer packed with adventure, discovery and play at Dyffryn Gardens.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Inspired by Reginald and Florence Cory’s love of travel, nature, bugs and plants - this year’s Summer of Play transforms the gardens into a vintage style festival of fun for the whole family.
With two exciting play hubs to explore, families can enjoy giant garden games, creative activities and hands-on outdoor play throughout the summer holidays.
Relax on the South Front lawn, challenge friends and family to giant snakes and ladders and bug-inspired ludo, or head to the Log Stack play area for mud kitchens, musical play stations or simply enjoy the beautiful grade I listed gardens in full summer bloom.
Creative Kits and Explorer Backpacks will be available to borrow from Visitor Welcome and the Gallery, helping little explorers discover even more during their visit.
Summer of Play is free (normal admission applies) and no booking is needed.
