Throughout the summer you can experience the excitement of Ancient Egypt when town centres are transformed into an oasis of fun within deserts of golden sand!

Follow the ‘mummy’s’ street trail around each town and unravel clues that reveal the grisly facts of how to mummify!

Learn to write your name in hieroglyphics, create your own Egyptian mask, listen to stories about ancient Kingdoms or build a pyramid in the sand whilst ‘mummies’ and daddies relax in deckchairs! Town centre libraries will also be joining in the fun with Egyptian themed competitions, so come on down and enjoy the fun!

All details are correct at time of going to press. We would advise you to check all details to avoid disappointment. Egyptian Leicestershire is a Leicestershire County Council initiative, in partnership with town centre managers.
