Newby Hall and Gardens.

Newby Hall and Gardens is set to reopen to visitors on Saturday 28th March.

The hall have announced a programme of events taking place throughout the 2026 season.

The programme includes a mix of returning attractions and new additions.

Among the new events is a show celebrating the Mini car marque, with the Mini National Day scheduled for Sunday, 30th August, featuring a range of classic and modern vehicles.

During the Easter period, families can take part in a series of activities, including an Easter Bunny Adventure Trail running from 3rd to 6th April, alongside live children’s theatre performances on selected dates.

The trail will feature interactive elements in the woodland area, while theatre performances are aimed at younger audiences.

Other attractions available across the season include the site’s adventure playground, miniature railway, boat trips, and exhibitions such as the Bear House and Dollshouses.

A number of larger events are also planned, including Tractor Fest on 6th and 7th June, which is expected to feature over 1,600 exhibits, and the Aldborough and Boroughbridge Show on 26th July.

Additional motoring events include Sports Cars in the Park in May and the Historic Vehicle Rally in July.

The venue will also host a variety of cultural events, including a theatre production of Jane Eyre in April and an evening of opera in May.

Later in the summer, outdoor performances and events such as a production of Othello and the Fireworks Championships are also scheduled.

In September, the Harrogate Autumn Flower Show will return from 18th to 20th September, bringing displays, competitions and horticultural exhibits to the grounds.

The season will conclude with Apple Day and the World Jam Festival on 27th September.

Stuart Gill, commercial director at Newby Hall, said:

“We have put together an exciting and varied programme of activities for this coming season.

"We are looking forward to welcoming visitors back to enjoy everything the house and gardens have to offer.”
