Win a superior family ticket to the spectacular Kynren

Full of stunning choreography, combat, stunts, horsemanship, pyrotechnics and amazing special effects, including state of the art video projections, Kynren – An Epic Tale of England is back this summer to wow audiences.

Performed by a 1,000-strong volunteer cast and crew on a seven-and-a-half-acre outdoor stage in Bishop Auckland, County Durham, Kynren takes audiences on a thrilling adventure through 2,000 years of history.

Viewed from an 8,000-seater tribune which provides panoramic views across the giant outdoor stage, the family-friendly experience begins with a boy called Arthur accidentally kicking a football through a window of a hunting lodge at Auckland Castle.

Audiences are then taken on a fascinating voyage through time as seen through the eyes of Arthur, shining the spotlight on the Romans, Vikings, Norman Conquest, the bloody outcome of England’s Civil War, King Charles’ final journey to the executioner’s block, the Age of Steam, World War I Christmas truce, the Queen’s Coronation and more.

The pre-show entertainment experience, the Viking Village, returns for 2024 and is included in the cost of a Kynren ticket, offering visitors the opportunity to wander through the authentic recreation of a traditional, 9th century Viking settlement.

Watch legends come to life every Saturday night from 27th July to 14th September, as each 90-minute performances starts at sunset and ends in starlight.

Two lucky winners will both win a superior family ticket to Kynren for four people, plus car parking and shuttle passes will also be included.
