About
Enjoy a fantastic summer of fun at Beamish Museum, daily until 3rd September!
Visit Beamish, The Living Museum of the North this summer - enjoy a fantastic programme of events and explore our newly-opened 1950s and Georgian exhibits.
There's a changing programme of events every day, with everything from den building and baking demonstrations to milking a wooden cow and enjoying 1950s fun and games, including a game of the Shove It Up Your Jumper quiz in the 1950s welfare hall on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays!
On Wednesdays, head to our Masonic Hall in The 1900s Town to design your own theatre/cinema playbill poster, before heading to our new cinema exhibit to experience a 1950s trip to the pictures!
There’ll be a special opportunity to get a 1940s hairstyle with our hairdressing experience at the Land Girls’ cottage at our 1940s Farm (small extra fee applies) on Thursdays.
It’s all fun and games at 1820s Pockerley Old Hall every Friday. Don’t forget to have a go at pottery-making in our new Georgian pottery exhibit!
On Suffragette Sundays, get involved in the campaign for women’s right to vote at 11am, 2pm and 3pm in The 1900s Town.
Summer Fun at Beamish Museum is included in admission to Beamish and is free to Beamish Unlimited Pass holders and Friends of Beamish members – pay once and visit free for a year, including daytime events.
