Father's Day

There are plenty of ways to celebrate the father figure in your life or spend time with family in Bath this Father's Day, taking place on Sunday 21 June.

Here are some of our top suggestions for how you can make it an extra special weekend, from live shows and festivals, through to new exhibitions and thrilling experiences.

Event highlights

Lounge in the sun or challenge each other to a game of table tennis at Bath on the Beach, the city's ultimate summer destination, on its opening weekend.

Enjoy a night of illusion at Krowd Keepers Magic Theatre, or laugh along at Krater Comedy Club. For a more relaxed evening, listen to free live jazz at Green Park Brasserie.

Don't forget that Bath's other award-winning attractions will be open as usual over Father's Day weekend! Explore the immaculately preserved 2,000 year old ruins of The Roman Baths, see how a wealthy Georgian family might have lived at No.1 Royal Crescent, and learn all about the life of Bath's most famous former resident at The Jane Austen Centre.

Families will love Mary Shelley's House of Frankenstein, where you can immerse yourselves in the author's compelling story over four atmospheric floors set in a former townhouse, with the option of two thrilling escape room challenges and a horror walkthrough experience in the basement for braver visitors.

Go for a daytrip outside the city to Wookey Hole and explore the site's many attractions, from the ancient cave network to vintage penny arcades, adventure golf, circus shows, and more. Or head further south to Haynes Motor Museum to see the UK's largest collection of cars and motorcycles.
