If you are looking for the ultimate way to kickstart your weekend, Barnsdale Gardens is offering a rare chance to experience its stunning grounds in a completely new light.
On Friday, 19th June 2026, the gardens will open their gates late for Barnsdale Gardens After Hours. From 6:00pm to 8:30pm, visitors can enjoy an exclusive evening of twilight beauty, relaxation, and live music as the sun begins to set.
Whether you want to catch up with friends over a glass of wine or simply need a peaceful escape to unwind after a busy week, the serene evening atmosphere provides the perfect backdrop.
The event is designed to be a relaxed, sensory experience, combining the natural beauty of the gardens with great food and music:
Kick off the evening with a complimentary glass of wine (or a soft drink) included with your arrival.
As you wander through the various garden rooms, you can soak in the acoustic sounds of the incredibly talented local musician, CJ Hatt.
