Kynren spectacular announces its return this summer - with a Queen’s Platinum Jubilee special on the bill

The show, which spans 2000 years of history, returns to its Bishop Auckland stage, with six Saturday performances from August 6 to September 10, 2022.

To mark the momentous Queen’s Platinum Jubilee there will be an additional performance taking place on Friday, June 3.

The award-winning open-air performance returns with more dates available.

From Boudicca’s battles with the Romans to two world wars, via Vikings, Tudors, Stuarts, Queen Victoria and the Industrial Revolution, Kynren tells the story of England’s colourful history.

Audiences watch from the 8,000-seater tribune which provides panoramic views across the giant outdoor stage.

Join young Arthur on his epic quest as he encounters rebellions, wars, magic and majesty.

Gates open two and a half hours before the start of each show throughout the summer, allowing visitors the opportunity to arrive early for food and drink in one of the dining areas, whilst enjoying live jazz by the lake.
