Easter Family Activities
This April (3–19 April 2026, 9.30am – 5.30pm), families can join us at The Bishop’s Palace for our fun Easter family activities. Little adventurers can embark on an Easter trail throughout the gardens, get creative with our Art Adventurers and Nature Ninjas family crafting sessions and marvel at the breath-taking falconry displays on the 11th April.
With over 800 years of history and 14 acres of RHS partner gardens to explore, Easter promises to be a time full of family fun, adventure, creativity and an unmissable family day out in Wells.

What else to enjoy at the Palace:
Inside the 800-year-old Palace, families can enjoy the new multimedia tours, allowing children to uncover the rich history of the Palace through quizzes, talking bishops, and treasure hunts!
Pick up a Palace Passport from our Ticket Office and collect stamps for different activities and events to fill the Passport for a prize at the end of the year.
The Bishop’s Table, our award-wining on-site café, offers the perfect respite for tired explorers. With a children’s menu and plenty of fruit, snacks and drinks, it’s the perfect place to unwind this Easter.
