Planning for the holidays can be tricky so we've popped everything happening here at CFT in one handy list below. And there's always lots more on our what's on for families.
Summer
The holidays kick off with our free events Summer Sessions on Friday evenings and Storytime Saturdays on Saturday mornings. We also can't wait for playtime in the new 'destination playpark' planned for Oaklands Park this summer. Keep you're fingers crossed for sunny weather!
We've also announced our Summer Holiday Activities in Chichester and Midhurst and invite you and the family to don your fabulous frocks and don your tails, for our marvellous musical, Top Hat, which runs across the holidays. Will you be joining us? Family tickets available!
There's also chance to go behind the scenes in our Family Friendly Backstage Tours which are great for kids aged 7+ and our family spaces are available within arms' reach of the Café on the Park Monday to Saturday from 9am.
