Houghton Regis Heritage Day at Houghton Hall Park

Step into our history by conversing with reenactors from across the eras, listening to talks on the town's history, and watching demonstrations of what life may have been like in the past. There will be something for everyone, even the kids will be able to have a go at being ancient warriors!

Dogs are more than welcome at Houghton Hall Park, which is free to enter and also has multiple children's play areas, scenic walks, kitchen gardens, and a dog-friendly café with both hot and cold food served all day. There are also bathrooms that are free to use located in the Visitors' Centre.
