Gladstone 'Wakes'

About

Take a Potters holiday and enjoy traditional 'Wakes' week activities with the sights and sounds of a Victorian funfair with a Carousel, Swing Boats, Coconut Shy and Hoopla stall. Come and have a go at traditional Victorian circus skills with a few surprises thrown in with Andrew Van Buren and marvel at our aerial artist as she performs in the cobbled courtyard.

We are also pleased to announce the Ragged Victorians will be back at the museum wandering around the stalls. See how they wonder at the new technology; will the rat catcher catch any rats and discover what a 'pure' collector was.

11am – 4pm. Free with normal museum admission.
