Arts & Culture, Family Friendly

Dragon Week is just around the corner, and we can’t wait to show you what we’ve got in store at Arreton Barns!

From 25th – 31st May, Arreton Barns transforms into a world of dragons, adventure, creativity and a little bit of magic.

Head to The Corn Exchange to pick up your free map, then set off on the Dragon Hunt around the Barns and see if you can crack the secret code.

Keep an eye out for our roaming junk dragons too, who’ll be wandering around the Barns throughout the week and stopping for plenty of photo opportunities.

You can also build your own mythical beast in our workshops, discover dragon-inspired creations from our brilliant shops and artisans, and join the ‘Paint Your Own Dragon Boat’ model ship workshops at The Shipwreck Centre on Friday, 29th May from 11:00 – 15:00.
