Visit St Edmundsbury Cathedral's ambitious project to recreate the Cathedral out of 200,000 LEGO bricks!

Visitors can see the Lego Cathedral being built before their eyes and you can offer them a hand by placing your very own brick for just £1!

The Lego Cathedral is located in the South West corner of St Edmundsbury Cathedral.

Rollerskating

Looking for somewhere that the kids can let off steam and have some fun? Then head to CurveMotion! Home to the biggest playframe in East Anglia, little ones will love charging around the soft play area; complete with tunnels, climbing nets, slides, climbing wall, battle canon zone, disco zone and huge 6ft vertical drop slide. For toddlers and babies, there's also a dedicated area with soft play and a ball pool.

After running riot in the soft play, pop on your roller skates and head to the roller skating rink for an hour or so of whizzing around the rink (and falling over too!). After all that racing around, head to the cafe for ice creams, milkshakes and lunch.

Swimming

There's lots to do for the whole family on a rainy day at Bury St Edmunds Leisure Centre. Book a family swim session and have a splashing good time in the pirate pool with flumes. For adults, you can run up a sweat at one of the stations in their fully equipped gym, put yourself through your paces on the 8 lane athletics track and afterwards, relax in the sauna.

Afterwards, you can enjoy snacks, drinks and meals in the on-site Paddy & Scotts café.
