May Day Weekend Hever Castle

About

Celebrate May Day at Hever Castle & Gardens with a weekend of fun family activities and traditional May Day customs.

Dance around the Maypole with brightly coloured ribbons intertwined, get your face painted* and watch a Robin Hood Play on the Castle forecourt. You will also get the chance to meet Robin Hood, Maid Marian and Little John as they wander around the grounds.

Then head into the Castle and see if you can spot the Green Man carved into the wood and ceilings.

At this time of year, the award-winning gardens and grounds are a feast for the eyes, with the delicate blossom of pear, apple and cherry trees to lift the spirits. Stroll through the Pergola Walk where the walls are bedecked with an array of Wisteria and admire the colourful bedding plants in the Italian Garden.
