Online Admissions Ticket purchasing
The new online admission ticket purchasing system is scheduled to go live in the second half of February. If you would like to be contacted by email when this service is launched, please click here to take you to the Enquiry Form where you can send your details to the Castle Office.
Please note that sending a message to the Castle using the above facility will only inform the Castle Office that you wish to be notified when the online admission ticket purchasing is available. The receipt by the Castle Office of these messages neither confirms the acceptance of an order for tickets nor the availability of tickets on a given day.
