Something for everyone at Bailiffgate

Bailiffgate is currently closed but will open on Saturday May 22nd 2021 with full Covid precautions. It would be helpful to pre-book a visit day and time (see below) for busy days such as Saturdays and forecast wet days. 
 
Children under 16 come free throughout June, July & August thanks to generous sponsorship by St. Hilda's Trust and Northumberland Children’s Trust, but it is still necessary to pre-book them for Covid records. 
 

There is plenty for all ages to see and do at Bailiffgate. Two floors of permanent exhibits illustrate the fascinating 10,000 year history of Alnwick and District. In addition there is a third Gallery floor. The following Exhibitions and Events will take place there during the year.  You can click on the button below each picture to see more details.

Entry to the main Gallery exhibition and any other pop-up exhibitions is always free with museum entry. You do not need to reserve a place at any of these. If you become a museum Friend, then you and your family can also come in free for a whole year. See Details,
