Playful Culture Trail - Detective Edition

Detectives grab your maps - adventure awaits!

Are you looking for interactive, educational, and playful things to do with your children this summer?

This summer, families are encouraged to discover and play in Cork’s attractions and outdoor spaces with the Playful Culture Trail! The trail, which includes making fairy houses, getting dressed up in Nano Nagle and finding the centre of the labyrinth at St Fin Barre's Cathedral, is designed to encourage young people to explore culture in an imaginative and playful way!

Pick-up a child friend Playful Culture trail map from the local Tourist Office and participating attractions and start exploring everything the city has to offer! Collect stamps at each attraction and keep an eye out for Bláithín the Lizard, the playful culture trail's mascot - this year she has her detective hat on - and will be hiding in each attraction.

While you are trying to find Detective Bláithín, why not complete the 20 Playful Things to Do in Cork city, you'll find these on the back of the map.
