Stranger Folk at Tredegar House
Step into the interactive world of Stranger Folk this October. Download the app and work together to heal a rift between the human and spirit world.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
As Calan Gaeaf approaches and the veil between our world and Annwn grows thin, the Stranger Folk have crossed into our world. But who are they, and what should happen to them?
Download the free Stranger Folk app and step into an interactive folklore adventure where you'll be guided by the mysterious Crone. Follow her instructions, explore Tredegar House and take on a series of silly, magical and sometimes surprising challenges to uncover the story of the Stranger Folk and help decide their fate.
You'll encounter characters and creatures inspired by folklore, with Tredegar House providing the perfect setting for your adventure. Keep your wits about you, as you never quite know what might be hiding around the next corner.
Designed for curious children aged 7+ and imaginative grown-ups, Stranger Folk is a chance to see Tredegar House differently, bringing together technology, storytelling and Welsh folklore in one immersive adventure.
The app is free to download before you visit or when you arrive at Tredegar House. You'll need a magic password to begin your adventure, which you can collect from the Welcome Point when you arrive.
There’s no set route to follow, so you can explore at your own pace and let the story lead you. Will you help the Crone uncover the truth about the Stranger Folk - and decide what becomes of them?
