Splore noun Scot.

Join in the fun this February half-term, as Corby Town Centre and The Core at Corby Cube will come to life with performances, activities and workshops for families and children of all ages!
Join the young participants from Core Create as they present The Ocean Explorers, a fun, colourful, and environmentally themed performance for all. Promenade with Eko, a spectacular 13ft sea giant who has risen from the deep ocean to join us. Look out for Beato Burrito, the fantastic comedy Mariachi band who’ll be serenading everybody. Be sure to smarten up, as The Crimplene Crusaders will be out, making sure everyone’s on their best behaviour! And enjoy some delicious street food and live music from Fly By Bars.
Take your seat to enjoy the delightful and thought-provoking Out of The Deep Blue by Autin Dance Theatre; and the magical, musical and moggy-filled Finding Chester from Rhubarb Theatre.
Then drop in to our arts & craft activities, run in partnership with Incredible Oceans and Corby Library; and VR Story Experiences from MBD, taking place during the festival.
This is going to be a fun-filled experience for all the family!
