Events for 11 August 2026
Belvoir Summer Safari
This summer, Belvoir Castle invites families to follow the Belvoir Summer Safari — an adventure playground trail that turns a day out into a proper treasure hunt. Explorers set off from Explorer HQ, following clues through the playground and meeting characters like Dave, Pippa, Snowy, Stu, Percy, Gary, Lottie and Chester along the way, before the trail leads them to the Animal Park to meet the real thing.
Cirquoise 2026 at Gates
This summer, Cirquoise returns to Gates with a thrilling, high-energy family circus that will amaze and astound audiences of all ages. Following two hugely successful years at Gates Oakham, Cirquoise is delighted to be back and launching at Gates Woodlands Hinckley too. If past performances are anything to go by, tickets will sell fast.
