We’re back for Season 2 of the Dunham Apple Festival – and it’s bigger, better, and even more apple-filled than last year!

Set in Manchester’s only commercial orchard, the festival begins with an interactive apple picking adventure. With assistance from our friendly Dunham Apple Festival staff, you’ll handpick apples directly from the orchard. This year, every group gets its own basket, and we’ve reduced group sizes for a more relaxed experience.

 

The fun doesn’t stop there. You’ll head to the pressing station where you’ll press your freshly picked apples into juice – and best of all, taste it there and then. It’s a fun, educational, and interactive experience that’s perfect for all ages, offering a hands on look at how apples are transformed from orchard to glass.

Once you’ve completed your session, the whole orchard is yours to enjoy for the rest of the day. New for this year is the Apple Character Trail – a fun and improved version of last year’s popular hunt, now with interactive stations, photo boards, and surprises along the way. The Apple Colouring Tent offers a creative space for little ones to relax and get stuck in, while the Bouncy Pad and Tractor Ride return for more outdoor fun.

 

We’ve also introduced Adult-Only Sessions with a twist – after your apple picking and pressing experience, you’ll receive a cider tasting board in The Apple Barn to round off the day in true Dunham fashion.

 

With fresh cakes, wood-fired pizza, craft cider, and apple juice all available from The Apple Barn, this is a full day out in the countryside you won’t want to miss.

The Dunham Apple Festival is an invitation to embrace the joys of the season with a day filled with engaging activities, delicious food, and family fun. Join us in celebrating the autumn harvest and create lasting memories with your loved ones!
