A time to discover something special
A series of milestone anniversaries offers the perfect reason to explore Northumberland. From protected landscapes to historic sites and much loved attractions, it is a chance to experience the county through moments that bring its story to life.
This summer, celebrations are in full swing across the county. Kielder Forest marks its 100th anniversary with major events building towards late August and September, while Northumberland National Park continues to mark 70 years with exhibitions unfolding across the season. Inland at Ford & Etal Estates, Heatherslaw Corn Mill celebrates 50 years of milling through the summer months, with free admission on offer throughout the anniversary period. July sees the Mountain Rescue Team mark 60 years of service in the hills and moorland of the county.
As autumn arrives, the spotlight turns to two special milestones, The Alnwick Garden marks its 25th anniversary on 1 October, and later that month Berwick Lighthouse celebrates 200 years standing watch over the coast.
Wherever you go, there is something to be part of.
