Event Details

The Hooke Park open day is a chance to explore our ever-changing woodland campus, learn more about its pioneering history, and visit the latest building additions resulting from our ongoing teaching and research in timber construction. The general public, AA members, staff and prospective students are invited to a special tour of the site including buildings designed by collaborations between ABK, Frei Otto, Buro Happold and Edward Cullinan, as well as the Big Shed and Wakeford Hall. The day will also allow time to ramble through the woodland, which is well-known locally for its display of bluebells in spring.

All are welcome, booking is recommended. A gentle reminder that you must arrange your own travel to Hooke Park.

Guided tours will be offered at 10.30am and 1.30pm.

Light refreshments, teas and coffees will be on sale throughout the day. Card payments are accepted at Hooke Park.

  • Accessible toilets are available on the site, in the main workshop.
  • Bring weather-appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear as the tour will take roughly two hours and will go through woodland.
