IKEA hosts free family activities this bank holiday weekend

IKEA is bringing the bank holiday fun this weekend with in-store activities from Friday 29th April until Monday 2nd May for the whole family to enjoy. Customers with an IKEA Family membership will also receive £5 off purchases when spending £50, and £10 when spending £100¹.

IKEA stores in Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter, Milton Keynes and Reading are launching a number of free activities for the four-day extravaganza. Kids can let their imaginations run wild and get creative with face painting and balloon modelling, or experience the thrills from the marvellous magician. Or there’s the option to dance the day away with a live DJ, to fuel the bank holiday with some family friendly sing-along tunes,

At IKEA, we believe in the importance of taking time away from the stresses of everyday life, and letting play unwind the mind. That’s why we’ll be putting on a whole host of activities for all the family to get involved in and spend time together, from tasting delicious food, to music and dancing.”
