Quiet sessions in The Magic Garden

Join us for quiet sessions in The Magic Garden at Hampton Court Palace, aimed at Neurodivergent and Learning-Disabled children, and their families and friends.

During this session, we have lower visitor capacity than usual and lower noise levels. We turn off bathroom hand dryers, implement adaptations to staff operations such as using earpieces for radios, and do not use the tannoy system.

The session begins at 09.30 and ends at 11.00.
