Ways to Play 

This event is part of our Ways to Play programme of free and low-cost family-friendly activities.

Make your ‘Ways to Play’ adventure a great value day out by travelling to our venues by the Metro and / or Ferry.  

Up to three children aged 11 and under can travel for free on the Metro and the Shields Ferry with a fare-paying adult. Metro is the convenient, fast and frequent way to get to your favourite attractions and now it’s even more affordable.

Ways to Play is sponsored by Tyne and Wear Metro.

Come and meet some real-life Vikings and Viking experts at the museum in our Natural Northumbria gallery. 

Storytellers will weave tales of magic and heroism drawn from the sagas of the Vikings. Try your hand at untangling fiendish riddles and mysterious runes, and make your own rune stone to take away with you.

Story time is at 2.15pm, and all other activities are drop-in.
