Contains affiliate links
School holidays are approaching again, so it’s time to check out all the things to do in Warwickshire during February half term 2026. As half term isn’t quite such a big event as the Christmas holidays, many places announce their plans quite late. If your favourite attraction doesn’t have anything listed as yet, do get in touch with them to see what their plans are. If you’re on a budget, check out these free things to do in Warwickshire as well.
This post covers the Warwickshire area only. If you are looking for half term days out in nearby counties, please see below:
Baddesley Clinton
There’s no particular event taking place at Baddesley Clinton this half term, but the house, gardens and grounds are open daily throughout February. There are lots of family friendly things to do, including looking for animal sculptures and real wildlife in the woodland. The second hand book shop is worth a visit, take a look at the snowdrops and warm up with a hot drink in the café.
Dates: Open daily throughout February 2026

Enchanted Tea Room
I absolutely love the look of the Enchanted Tea Room and their events look fabulous, but I do find their website a little difficult to navigate. There is a school holidays tab within their February events page, but it’s empty. However, lots does seem to be going on during half term. Themes include:
- K-Pop Demon Hunters
- K-Pop Neon Party
- The Snow Sisters
- Rotten to the Core
- Princess Pop Party
- The Perfect Princess Tea
Dates: Various dates in February 2026
Website: Enchanted Tea Room

Kenilworth Castle, Warwickshire
There doesn’t seem to be a particular event taking place at Kenilworth Castle this February, but it’s always an interesting place to visit. Enjoy views from the tower, stroll around the Elizabethan garden and learn about the castle and its fascinating history. There are events on at different times that will make the castle more appealing to children such as falconry displays and adventures in archaeology. Kenilworth Castle is dog friendly, with dogs welcome on leads throughout the site except for the food area of the tearoom.

Warwickshire February half term 2026: Mad Museum
Whilst there’s no particular event taking place at the MAD Museum for February half term 2026, this Warwickshire Museum is the only mechanical art venue in the UK and pre-booking will be essential. Visitors can interact with art, contraptions and machines, create marble runs on a giant wall and grab a free activity sheet to take part in a competition. Craft facilities are available so you can sketch exhibits as well as taking photos and videos. Little ones will love the sensory experience at the MAD museum with its sounds, colours, movement and flashing lights. Children will subtly learn about physics, maths and design as they look at interactive, eccentric and loud art.

What’s on at Warwick Castle February half term 2026
Enjoy a festival of archery at Warwick Castle this half term. Watch expert archers put on exhilarating performances and try out “have a go archery” yourself. Other things to do include the Horrible Histories Maze, Zog Playland and birds of prey encounter. Visitors can also explore the castle’s ramparts and towers. If you’re coming from further away it’s worth looking into the lovely accommodation options available at the castle. If you visit regularly, it may even be worth looking at their annual pass.
