Things to do in Worcestershire February half term 2025
School holidays are approaching again, so it’s time to check out all the things to do in Worcestershire during February half term 2025. 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 Worcestershire as well.
This post covers the Worcestershire area only. If you are looking for half term days out in nearby counties, please see below:
All Things Wild Worcestershire February half term 2025
At the time of writing, there’s no particular event taking place at All Things Wild this February half term. However, it’s open daily throughout February and it’s always a great day out. See a variety of fun animals including a walk-through lemur encounter, step back in time to visit the dinosaur experience and enjoy the indoor and outdoor play areas and attractions. If you’re looking for something extra special, you can get up close with meerkats, capybara, reptiles, lemurs or farm animals. Or, be a keeper for a few hours.
Dates: Open daily throughout February
