Looking for fun family days out in Summer 2023? Well, this year you’re really spoiled for choice. From amazing places to bring your picnic hampers to historic palace visits, we’ve collected an impressive range of fun family days out in Summer 2023 across the UK.
LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort Theme Park
Ideal for kids between 2 and 12 years old, the LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort is quite possibly the UK’s favourite kids’ theme park. It has a lot to explore and you can even bring a packed lunch to save on famously-high amusement park food prices. Just keep your hampers in the car and you’ll be able to leave and retrieve them. Stroll through the LEGO MYTHICA Magical Forest or explore the DUPLO Playtown interactive play village. Fancy a break from the heat? The surf’s on at Splash Safari. Want a bit of bling? Pan for gold at the Pirate Goldwash! There’s so much you do, you might want to visit a few times in Summer 2023.
Buckingham Palace in the Coronation Year
Celebrate our new monarch, King Charles, by visiting his primary residence in the year of his coronation; Summer 2023. There’s a surprising amount to do and see there. Your little ones will love to learn about the palace from their fun guide, Rex the Corgi. And there’s a whole Family Pavilion with games and activities for under 12s. Plus, if you ask, they will upgrade your pass into a 12-year access pass! However, since they don’t allow luggage, it’s unlikely you could bring hampers on your visit, so best to get a nibble elsewhere or dine on-site.
The Lake District
Famed the world over for its beauty, older children will appreciate the majesty of the Lake District. From the Langdale Valley to the Northern Lakes, surround yourself in glorious nature on one of the most rustic family days out in Summer 2023 to be had! Pack your hampers and set off for a lakeside or mountainside afternoon filled with animal-watching and scenic hikes. Not sure where to start from first? Visit their official website to plan your day trip or hire a boat out to see one of the big lakes from within!
Brighton Beach
While sure to be busy, no list of fun family days out in Summer 2023 would be complete without Brighton Beach and Brighton Pier. With Palace Play, a 4-storey soft play area, arcades, the turbo coaster, a carousel and more; Brighton Pier is a must-see. And, when it gets too hot, take a dip in the cool waters or lay your picnic blanket out on the pebbles and crack open your hampers under a brolly. Keen on a stroll? Take a walk with the whole family down the promenade and grab some ice creams to keep you cool.
And there you have it! Hopefully, these fun family days out in Summer 2023 have given you a few ideas! Now, grab your summer hampers, pack up the kids and get on the road. There are loads of amazing adventures ahead!
