Event information

Room on the Broom Day

Join us this Hop tu Naa for a simple, family-friendly Room on the Broom themed day at the House of Manannan.

Children can enjoy a relaxed mix of storytelling, crafts, games, colouring, and a trail around the galleries. The focus is on play, creativity, and exploring the story through activities at their own pace.

The main challenge is a trail where children search for 5 Room on the Broom characters hidden around the galleries. Once all 5 are found, they can complete their “broom sheet” and finish the activity.

Families can also enjoy a screening of the Room on the Broom film on the big screen.

What’s on

• Room on the Broom character trail (find 5 characters around the galleries)
