This year the event will take place over THURSDAY 10th - SUNDAY 13th SEPTEMBER 2009 and we aim to ensure that it is even more of a success than 2008!
Year upon year we gather a larger and larger following and 2008 was no exception with 46853 visits made over the 4 days.
Hopefully 2009 will be even bigger and as usual we will do our best to encourage new buildings to open and events to take place.
Over the weekend you will get a chance, free of charge, to step into the past and find out more about the 2000 years of history that has made the North East the vibrant place that it is today. The event booklets and website are available from early August (date to be confirmed), and pre-booking will be available shortly after the booklets are released. As always, this website will have all the listing details and hopefully some new functionalities that will help you organise your TWHODs weekend and get the most out of it.
Join our Facebook group and discuss everything about Tyne and Wear Heritage Open Days - the more feedback we get the more we can do to make next year even better!
