About us

To celebrate the start of the school holidays our playful Giant Squid will be joined by some nautical themed vertical dancers who have come to play on the wall of our secret garden. See our magical mermaid joined by a shoal of fish swimming around her as they explore the mythical deep blue sea that our giant squid once called home. Supported by underwater music to submerge spectators into this mesmerising performance.

Performances from the secret garden wall by Firestone Bay at 11.00, 12.15, 13.15 and 14.30. Choreography by David Greeves of Yskynna (yer-skin-ah) Cornish verb 'to ascend. Performed by Yskynna Vertical Dance and Italia Conti (Choreography by Kerri Jackson) Music: November by Max Richter.

All this against the backdrop of our regular Good Food and Craft Market, making it a great family day out and opportunity to explore Royal William Yard.

The Giant Squid is an interactive and acoustic installation through which people can communicate (speak & hear) with each other. It radiates light to offer a surprising element at night.

Cast your net and see if you can capture its six sea creature friends that have escaped the harbour and are playing hide and seek. Collect your free trail passport from any cafe and restaurant in the Yard, find all its friends and collect six letters to spell a nautical word and claim your reward. Have fun explorers!
