Give-it-a-go sessions

Ever wanted to try blacksmithing?

Forging with hot metal is an inspiring and fun experience. No matter your skill level, the Blacksmiths Festival is offering forging opportunities (12yrs old and up) so everyone can give it a go!

For those with no/little experience, we will provide short inductions and a supervised opportunity to forge some simple objects from mild steel within 30 minutes. Of course there are a few rules to ensure everyone stays safe and you will have to wear the ultimate fashion accessory...... a leather apron.

Spots sell out each festival so book if you can’t bare the thought of missing out.
