Say yes to new experiences during National Lottery Open Week from 15th to 23rd March

Once again Naturezones Wildlife Education Trust and Osborne House are taking part in the National Lottery Open Week.

To say thank you for the £30 million raised for Good Causes every week by players, hundreds of National Lottery-funded venues across the UK will be offering free entry, discounts and special offers throughout National Lottery Open Week.

When does it take place?
National Lottery Open Week runs 15th to 23rd March and aims to encourage people to say yes to simple pleasures this spring.

Naturezones will be running free activities on 16th, 20th, 22nd and 23rd March and Osborne House is giving free entry to lottery players on 22nd and 23rd March.

Henley: It is our way of thanking National Lottery players
Darren Henley, Chief Executive of Arts Council England and Chair of the National Lottery Forum said,

“We’re excited to bring back National Lottery Open Week 2025! Life’s pace often pushes us to say ‘no’ to things we want to do, prioritising instead the things we think we ‘should do’. National Lottery Open Week is a chance to say ‘yes’ to joyful experiences – exploring the UK’s rich history, stunning landscapes and vibrant culture through free and low-cost days out. 

“It is our way of thanking National Lottery players who raise £30 million every week for Good Causes, supporting vital projects in arts, sports, heritage and communities nationwide.”
