Our guide pinpoints no fewer than 22 events or ideas in Worksop, Retford, Mansfield, Ashfield and wider Nottinghamshire for you to get stuck into over the next few days.
Worksop is turning Japanese with a cultural event at the town hall that celebrates the arts and crafts, food and entertainment of Japan.
But Halloween takes centre stage as it looms ever nearer. The annual Spectacle Of Light illuminations have been switched on at Rufford Country Park, where there is also a trick or treat trail. There is pumpkin-carving at Creswell Crags and a witches and warlocks den-building day at the Sherwood Forest Visitor Centre.
A whole range of activities to keep the kids occupied during the holiday has been organised. In Worksop, talented kids, aged five to 11, can’t wait for Theatre Week at the Acorn, and in Retford, a family show explores the magic of science. All this while mums and dads can enjoy pottery at Welbeck and a fashion show at Edwinstowe.
Before you set off, please check the individual website of your chosen destination for admission prices and opening times. Have a great weekend!
