Taskmaster at English Heritage sites this summer

It’s all fun and games at our sites this summer, with loads of activities for the whole family to get stuck into. We’ve partnered with TV’s Taskmaster to set you silly challenges as you explore. Collect your Taskmaster score card and complete your tasks. There might be a rubber duck or two to spot on the way too. 

The Taskmaster team won't be doing the tasks with you, which does mean you're in charge. Got any questions? Check out our Taskmaster FAQs.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Taskmaster events

Get answers to some of the questions people have asked about the events. We'll update with more questions and answers as they arise. 

  • Can we book the Taskmaster challenges?

    You can book a day ticket to the site online, and save 15% if you book before the day of your visit. You can’t book ahead for the Taskmaster challenges, and there may be a short wait for you to begin, but we’ll make sure everyone has time to take part.

  • Who are the challenges for?

    We recommend that anyone over the age of 4 can take part in the challenges, but its fun for all the family. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

  • Where will the challenges take place?

    The Taskmaster challenges will be spread out around the site, but they’ll be clearly marked so you won’t miss them! They will be outdoors, so please dress appropriately for the weather.

  • What if it’s raining?

    We’ll do our very best to continue with our Taskmaster challenges whatever the weather. However occasionally we may need to take them down or close the site. Please check our website and Facebook pages for updates.

  • How long will the challenges take?

    There’ll be 6 challenges in total, with each one taking 1–5 minutes, so there’ll be plenty of time to explore the rest of the site and the play activities on offer. During busy times, you may need to wait for a short time to begin your challenge
