The Air Rockets & 'flying machines' event will take place on 19th August 2026 at Holywells Park in Ipswich, featuring science, art, crafts, and games for children. Admission is free, but some activities may incur a fee of up to £9.
We have created an outdoor event for your children to make a rocket, paper planes and more! Science, arts and crafts and lots to do!
Look for our Blue Gazebo which will be on the grass opposite the Stable yard cafe "Bishops". We will be making all things that fly including mini rockets that we will launch and you take home. Paper aeroplanes, art, craft and games all in one workshop. This is suitable for those aged 4 years to 11 years. Any child younger than 4 yrs can accompany the adults and siblings but they will be too young to join in. Our activities will last as long as you wish and your timeslot will be up to two hours long. We do accept a few "drop-ins" if you decide to visit last minute, on the day!! Arriving anytime after 11.30am we do suggest booking to avoid disappointment. There will also be a pocket money shop and a chance to make a sand bottle for a small extra charge.
