Looking for a destination that packs more punch than places twice its size?
Welcome to Tamworth for a dynamic mix of indoor excitement and outdoor adventure to keep everyone entertained, from little explorers to thrill-seeking adults.
At the heart of Tamworth’s excitement is Drayton Manor Resort, the region’s number one tourist attraction. With high-octane rides, a much-loved zoo, and themed areas for all ages, it’s the ultimate destination for families, thrill-seekers, and fun-lovers alike.
If snow-covered slopes and winter sports are your thing, SnowDome recreates the spirit of the Alps right in the middle of England, all year round. Enjoy real snow, ski and snowboard sessions, family snow play, and après-ski vibes in the Alpine Bar.
For those looking to dive into the past, Tamworth Castle offers a fascinating journey through 900 years of English history. From the days of the Saxons and Æthelflæd, Lady of the Mercians, to the grandeur of Tudor and Victorian life, the Castle and surrounding Castle Pleasure Grounds are a stunning blend of heritage and beauty.
Just a short walk away, St Editha’s Church offers another powerful connection to the town’s past, featuring a striking stained-glass tribute to Tamworth’s legendary warrior queen.
History comes to life again at Statfold Country Park and Steam Railway, where age-old locomotives, classic rides, and the whimsical charm of the National Fairground Museum delight visitors of all ages. Ride a heritage train, browse one of the UK’s finest private steam collections, or step back in time with vintage fairground rides and attractions.
If you're looking to keep the energy high indoors, NAMCO Funscape is a one-stop hub of entertainment. Kids can burn off energy in the soft play zone, families can strike up some friendly competition on the bowling lanes, and everyone will enjoy the buzzing arcade and indoor-outdoor adventure golf course.
For something a little different - and lots of fun - head to LumberJaxs Axe Throwing, where you can test your aim, join mini-games and tournaments, and maybe even earn the title of ‘axepert’.
From snowy slopes to medieval towers, fairground rides to axe throwing, Tamworth is bursting with activities that can easily rival much larger destinations.
So pack your sense of adventure. Tamworth is ready when you are.
