Celts and Romans go head-to-head this May half term at Fishbourne Roman Palace
Visit Fishbourne Roman Palace this May half term to celebrate all things Celts and Romans.
These two communities lived side-by-side 2,000-years-ago, trading goods, ideas and cultural practices. From fashion to food, we’ve got lots of fantastic activities for families visiting Fishbourne Roman Palace this half term.
Step into the world of Celts and Romans!
Get creative and have fun with a range of exciting activities for all ages. Build your own roundhouse or Roman villa, design a colourful mosaic, and discover how the Celts and Romans dressed. Try out ancient games, get crafty at our arts and crafts stations, and even dress up like a Roman for a fun selfie! Activities may vary, so there’s always something new to enjoy each time you visit.
Plus, join us on Tuesday 27th May for special Latin and Ancient Greek taster sessions for both children and adults. These fun, drop-in sessions offer a lively introduction to ancient languages – perfect for anyone who wants to explore the world of words and myths! Find out more here.
Plus, you can hunt down the Celtic warriors in the Palace gardens in our special trail, which will run every day during half term.
