By 5th June 2019June 29th, 2022No Comments

How are you planning to spend Father’s Day this year? Gone are the days when all dad can expect is a Lynx gift set. There are loads of ways to celebrate, with activities ranging from the high octane to the more relaxed.

The best way to celebrate Father’s Day is together. Here are some fab activities in and around Bath to show dad how much you care.

Father’s Day at Avon Valley Adventure & Wildlife Park

16th June 2019, 10am to 6pm

Head over to Avon Valley Wildlife Park for a dad-tastic day out. The whole family can have a go at quad-biking, bouncing on massive air pillows, pig racing, boating and more. Dads get in for £1 when accompanied by a full-paying child (and that includes grandads and great-grandads too). Sounds like a great way to show dad how much he rocks. Find out more

If dad is a bit of a petrol head, why not let him feast his eyes on some motoring marvels? Check out the eclectic display of classic and vintage cars and motorcycles at Bath’s Festival of Motoring. Over this two-day event there will be parades, exhibitions, demos, and supercar rides. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s also live music, competitions and family activities to keep everyone entertained.Find out more

14th to 16th June 2019

How better to celebrate Father’s Day than with a carnival of outdoor adventure, entertainment, inspiration and delicious local food and drink? Camp for the weekend or come as day visitors to make the most of the scenery and activities. Take your pick from foraging, climbing, yoga, axe throwing, dry stone walling and star gazing. And when you’re worn out from all that adventure, you can chill out with some live music at the end of the day. Find out more

Father’s Day BBQ Weekend at Whitehall Garden Centre (Lacock and Whitchurch)

If dad’s got green fingers, a trip to the garden centre is always a treat. Add a Father’s Day BBQ to the mix and you’ve got a winning combination. The BBQ will be fired up at 10.30am, with tastings running from 11am to 3pm. There will also be tasting sessions in the farm shop and Father’s Day card making workshops on the Saturday between 10.30am and 4pm. And if you still want more, children’s pizza-making sessions will be on at the Lacock centre both days. Find out more
