What's On in Tavistock this Easter

jannatavistockbid

It's been a wet winter so we are thrilled to see signs of Spring here in Tavistock. Easter is a time of such joy and hope - the Devon hedgerows are bursting into life, Easter eggs are on the shelves and school is out! It’s one of the best seasons to spend time here on the edge of Dartmoor.


Here are our top picks of things to do in and around Tavistock this Easter.


Tavistock Easter Trail

Tavistock Town Centre always puts on great trails and there is something a little different for adventurers this Easter. Not many people know that Tavistock holds UNESCO World Heritage Status. Pretty crazy for a little market town in the heart of Devon! We invite you on a journey to visit other historical sites around the world and find out how they celebrate Easter. Pick up some sweet treats as you go.

The best bit… it’s FREE to take part!
