Wondering what’s on in the Peak District during that awkward time between Christmas and New Year? You may have no idea what day it actually is and still feel stuffed from Christmas, but this guide is all you need to get the family out and about in the National Park over the Twixmas period. Plus, if your kid(s) is not back to school until the 6/7th January, there are still some activities running.
A note for event organisers
If there is an local, family event taking place that is not included, please email us. It is free for all local events to be included in the guides. However, only those events that are within the Peak District National Park, or very close (such as Matlock, Ashbourne or Buxton), can be included (this does not include Chesterfield, Leek, Manchester or Sheffield). Also, this is only for events, not regular classes.
