Sprogmanay

Shimmy, sparkle, and sing your way into the New Year as Sprogmanay returns for 2026. Enjoy an afternoon of fun for all ages with live music and performances.  

Look out your party clothes, shine your dancing shoes and kick of 2026 as you mean to go on! We're thrilled to be joined by Unicorn Dance Party, back for a third time to celebrate the new year.

Need a break from dancing? Pull up a chair at our festive craft tables or explore our galleries packed with inspiring objects and stories.

The full programme will be announced soon.
