North East Restaurants Where Kids Eat Free

The Storied Lands : Review & Tips

 AD - This post is based on a press preview visit and a regular visit on the first day they were open to the public as well as previous visits to Kynren. As always, information can change so it's super important you check with the venue itself for the most up to date information when booking. Kynren has less than 250 employees and this post complies with HFSS guidance. 

The Storied Lands is a much-anticipated live action day time park that takes you on a whirlwind tour of history. It shares the same site as our fantastic Kynren evening show and is open every day except Mondays until 12 September 2026 (and will then take a break over winter and re-open next summer).
