Welcome to England’s largest festival of history and culture!
Every September thousands of volunteers across England organise events to celebrate our fantastic history and culture. It’s your chance to see hidden places and try out new experiences – all of which are FREE to explore.
On Friday 15 September, meet our volunteer heritage gardeners in the museum gardens and take your spring daffodil bulb home in its decorated pot.
You can also look around Bolling Hall, one of the oldest buildings in Bradford that was used as a Royalist headquarters during the English Civil War. Museum Library volunteers will be on hand with storytelling sessions for any little ones joining us!
Monday and Tuesday: Closed
Wednesday – Friday: 10am – 4pm
Saturday – Sunday: 11am – 4pm
Bolling Hall is situated on Bowling Hall Road one mile south of Bradford City Centre and is signposted with heritage ‘brown signs’ from A650 Wakefield Road.
From Bradford City Centre, the 635 bus departs from bus stops City Park A on Prince’s Way, Rawson Square H on John Street, and Little Germany Y on Vicar Lane (alight at Bowling Hall Road).
