HOP INTO HISTORY: Knight School and circus skills coming to Kidwelly Castle this Easter

The historic site will play host to a “Knight School” and a special circus skills workshop as part of a national spring programme from Cadw, welcoming families from across the region.

Kidwelly Castle will be transformed on Saturday, March 28 and Sunday, March 29, with “Juggling Jim” leading the hands-on fun for all ages.

Young explorers can take part in three light-hearted challenges at the Knight School between 11am and 1pm to complete their training.

From 1.30pm, the focus will shift to circus skills, with visitors given the chance to try their hand at juggling, diabolo, and plate spinning in the castle grounds.

The fun continues from Monday, March 30, with a week-long “Easter Quiz” trail that invites everyone to explore the fortress in a whole new way.

Participants will have to hunt for hidden Easter characters and unscramble a secret word to claim a special prize at the gift shop.

Kate Roberts, Chief Executive of Cadw, said: “The Easter break is a brilliant opportunity for families to explore the remarkable history that surrounds them.”

She added: “We’ve designed a varied and engaging calendar of events that encourages visitors to get outdoors and connect with Welsh heritage.”

Cadw has also confirmed that children go free with any adult membership, offering extra value for those planning multiple days out this spring.

The Kidwelly events are part of a wider national programme that includes medieval tournaments and falconry displays at various historic sites.

The castle will be open from 9.30am to 5pm throughout the Easter holidays, with the special quiz trail running until Sunday, April 5.

For more information and to plan your visit to one of Wales’ most striking medieval fortresses, head to the official Cadw website.

RAILWAY HISTORY ROLLS INTO SWANSEA: Unique exhibition train to arrive in city this spring

The travelling attraction – known as the “Inspiration” exhibition train – will pull into Swansea railway station from Sunday 26 April to Tuesday 28 April as part of a nationwide tour.

Organisers say the visit is particularly fitting because Swansea played a key role in railway history as the birthplace of the Swansea and Mumbles Railway, widely recognised as the world’s first fare-paying passenger railway.

The exhibition is part of the nationwide Railway 200 celebrations marking two centuries since the birth of the modern railway.

More than 1,000 visitors attended when the train previously stopped in Llandudno, and organisers hope the Swansea visit will attract similar crowds.

Inside the train, visitors can explore interactive displays, rare railway artefacts and exhibits explaining how the rail network developed – and how it continues to evolve today.

The exhibition has been co-curated with the National Railway Museum, offering what organisers describe as a “whistle-stop tour” through railway innovation.

Josh Bliszko, programme manager at Network Rail Wales and Borders, said the exhibition celebrates the people behind the railway.

“Our railway network is designed, built and operated by people – and Railway 200 is a celebration of those people,” he said.

“We’re delighted to be bringing the Inspiration train to Swansea, where we’ll honour the legacy of those who came before us, celebrate the colleagues who keep the railway running today, and inspire people of all ages who could become the future workforce.”

The event has also been welcomed by UK Rail Minister Peter Hendy.

“I’m proud to be celebrating our heritage as the birthplace of the modern railway,” he said.

“To this day our railway network is the backbone of our economy, driving economic growth, jobs and homes.

“With this train we’re not just looking to the past – we’re inspiring the next generation of engineers, drivers, conductors and technicians.”

The exhibition train has already travelled thousands of miles across Britain and attracted tens of thousands of visitors.

Emma Roberts said the attraction had been warmly received during earlier stops.

“Railways are one of history’s most important inventions and inside this train you can explore the story of rail in a fun and family-friendly environment,” she said.

“Inspiration has already travelled thousands of miles across Britain and it had a fantastic reception in Llandudno, so we are hugely excited to welcome locals aboard in Swansea.”

Tickets for the exhibition are free, although organisers say spaces are limited and visitors are encouraged to book in advance.
