Half Term Holidays
Half term in Staffordshire is full of things to do with the kids, whether you want to get the adrenaline pumping, create a unique souvenir to take home, or soak up some culture.
February half term events in Staffordshire
Head to Alton Towers Resort for a swashbuckling adventure this February half term, as the Pirate and Princess Takeover returns.
Exclusively for Alton Towers short break guests, the Takeover has great live shows, fancy dress parades, and the chance to learn how to be a pirate or princess, with admission to Sharkbait Reef by SEA LIFE, the Alton Towers Waterpark, and Extraordinary Golf all thrown in.
Fans of four-legged friends are in for a treat in Staffordshire this half term, as Trentham Monkey Forest reopens, and Lower Drayton Farm welcomes the first lambs of the year.
Nature comes under the spotlight at the National Memorial Arboretum too, where younger visitors can learn about the wildlife living on site, there's a new Animal Trail to explore, and the indoor pop-up cinema brings Paddington and Stick Man to life.
At World of Wedgwood, there's indoor fun with Hand and Footprinting sessions, where the kids can make their mark and create a perfect keepsake, fired onto Wedgwood china, for mums and dads to take home.
And there's all-weather activity at Stafford's Gatehouse Theatre as Milkshake Live brings Fireman Sam, Noddy, Shimmer & Shine and other children's favourites to the county town.
