Everyone knows something of the working life of an Edwardian miner, but what did they do after the day's work was done? Our Pit Village and Colliery Yard take on a whole new character at night, and will be host to a special event to celebrate Museums at Night.

Tuesday 1st May 2012 marks exactly 70 years since the day that Beamish Village was hit by 3 bombs, killing eight people and severely injuring many more.
This bank holiday weekend Beamish is celebrating May Day the traditional way! Join us on Sunday, 6th and Monday, 7th May to see the May King and Queen crowned with flowers and some time-honoured Maypole dancing.
