Visit YSP this February half term

Visit YSP this February half term

We’re looking forward to welcoming you to YSP this February half term, to spend time with friends and family soaking up art and nature, spotting signs of spring and connecting to nature. Look out for snowdrops emerging from the ground, and our resident herons and other wildlife.

There's lots to see and do outdoors and indoors from sculpture and nature trails to exhibitions and plenty of space to play. For lunch, stop off at the Kitchen Cafe where you can get a special £5 meal deal for kids.

Delicious food and drink is available as always, across our outlets to eat in or enjoy while you explore.

Kids go FREE and parking is FREE too.
