Our Amazing Family Adventure Day is Back!

 

***TICKETS ON SALE NOW  –  visit our online shop to purchase***

 

Our Family Adventure Day is a firm favourite on the Finnbar’s Force event calendar and gives kids of all ages the opportunity to try out some of the fantastic outdoor activities that the brilliant Eaton Vale Outdoor Activity Centre has to offer – from Family Canoeing to Archery, Axe Throwing and Air Rifle Shooting to High/Low Ropes, Climbing Wall, Trapeze, Catapult Shooting, Go Karts and even a Caving Bus!

Each year we all have a selection of food vendors – this year we have Elsies Pizza, Bucket List and Mr Whippy.

Teas, coffees and cakes will, of course, be on sale in our cafe area.

 

THE EVENT IS TICKET ONLY

Tickets are exchanged for wristbands on arrival which will be valid for the whole event day: 10:30 am – 5:00 pm.

All persons attending will require a valid ticket, except children under 18 months who are free of charge and do not need a ticket.

You will receive your ticket in the form of an email with a ticket number. We will have lists at the entry point – you will not need to print your ticket. Emails will be sent out up to a 2 days before the event. Please don’t contact us about your ticket until after this time.

‘All-in’ (All Activity) – £25.00 each:

Includes unlimited turns on all activities, suitable for those age 5 and above – including adults – for the whole day! A couple of age/size exceptions do apply – see below.

‘Basic’ (Entry & Smaller Activities) – £5.00 each:

For smaller children and all spectators – for example, accompanying adults that do not wish to purchase an ‘All-in’ ticket. Anyone attending who does not have an ‘All-in’ ticket will need this ticket. This ticket includes all activities suitable for children under 5, plus some that are suitable for over 5’s, but it does not include the main adventure activities for ages 5+

‘Basic’ wristband holders will be allowed to accompany ‘All-in’ wristband holders in their group onto the canoes – this includes adults and younger children, providing thy can fit into the buoyancy aids provided.  Please note, adults who would like to canoe without a child must have an ‘All-in’ wristband or an individual activity ticket (see below).

All participants will receive a wristband on arrival which indicates the type of ticket purchased. This will need to be shown at each activity.

Subject to availability, a selection of the main activities may be available on a pay-per-go basis on the day, for ‘Basic’ wristband holders. You may purchase individual tickets for these at £4 each.

AGE / SIZE RESTRICTIONS

As with every year, there are some minimum age/height/size restrictions which apply to activities, for safety reasons.

Two activities have higher age limits. They are:

Trapeze (High Ropes) = Age 7

Air Rifles = Age 10

Children under the age of 5 are very welcome to join us and will be able to take part in any of the additional activities available on the day that are deemed suitable for younger children.
