Free family fun

Try something new at your local library
Salford’s libraries are a great place to start, with activities and events taking place throughout the year, as well as plenty of books to discover.

Get on your bike
Head to the BMX tracks at Little Hulton and Cadishead for something a little more active.

Explore Salford’s parks
From playgrounds and outdoor gyms to woodland and nature, there are green spaces right across the city to discover. Why not use the summer holidays to visit one you’ve never been to before?

Discover Salford 100
It’s a special summer in Salford as we celebrate 100 years of city status. Look out for free events, exhibitions and activities taking place as part of the Salford 100 programme throughout the holidays.

And there’s plenty more...
You’ll also find free entry and activities at some of Salford’s best-known attractions, including Salford Museum & Art Gallery and Ordsall Hall.

That feels much broader and actually gives families different kinds of free things to do, rather than repeating three attractions.
