On sale 10am, Friday 16 August
After the Library has closed to the public and the dust of the day has settled, the buildings come alive for a unique and magical experience. Join us for an exclusive self-guided tour through the medieval stone passages, secret staircases and richly panelled rooms as night begins to fall. Lights will be low, shadows will be long and the air will be thick with the silence of centuries as you wander freely without a guide through this richly atmospheric space, finishing in the Baronial Hall for a glass of wine and an informal chat with staff and curators of one of the most ancient and lovely buildings in the city centre. Come with an open mind and expect some surprises!
This event is suitable for adults and young people over 14.
