Seaton Delaval Hall in Newcastle will offer free admission to the public on 11 and 12 September 2026 as part of Heritage Open Day. The event includes activities and displays related to the Gay Delavals family.
Visit for free on 11 and 12 September to discover the world of the Gay Delavals, the family who pushed Georgian excess to the limit and who were known for their love of mischief, playfulness and theatricality. Explore the house and meet the family through the collection of portraits, enjoy a walk in the late summer gardens or join one of our drop-in potted history or garden tours to discover more. Pop through to the nearby Church of our Lady to discover more about its recent National Lottery Heritage Fund-supported project.
