Family Activity - Batty Bat Bunting

Family Activity - Batty Bat Bunting is part of the programme at Glastonbury Abbey, a ruined medieval monastery in 36 acres of grounds in Somerset.

Pipistrelle bats fly through the abbey ruins at dusk to feed on moths and gnats, and this half-term drop-in in the Abbey Museum turns them into a string of bunting to take home.

What to expect:

• Tuesday 27 October 2026, 11am to 1pm, in the Abbey Museum
• Drop in and "make your own bat bunting from card and recycled craft items"
• "Family Activities are included with Abbey admission or membership", with no need to book in advance
• "Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times."
• The abbey grounds are open 10am to 5pm, last entry 4.15pm, so the craft fits inside a wider visit
• Yard Cafe, shop and St Patrick's Chapel are at the Abbey Yard entrance
• Dogs on short leads are welcome in the grounds
