Grand Days OutPLANNING FOR BETTER DAYS OUT
Find a day out that works for everyone
Grand Days Out helps you discover what to do in and around a city like Bath, then build a plan that suits your group, your time and your budget.

An illustration of how a plan comes together, not a live recommendation.
Planning a day out should not take all day.
Most of us open several tabs, scan a few listings pages and still finish unsure whether an option really suits the group. Grand Days Out brings dependable places together with current local events, then helps you narrow them down and save a practical plan.
Start with your group
Say who is coming, their ages, the pace that suits you and any access needs.
See what is relevant
Dependable attractions and venues alongside current events in and around Bath.
Build a practical plan
Save the options you like and shape the day around time, budget and travel.
The hard part is not finding things to do.
The hard part is finding something that works for this group, on this day, in this weather and at this budget.
- Too much to sift through
- Options are filtered down to the ones that fit your group before you start reading through them.
- Out-of-date or incomplete event information
- Current local events sit next to established venues, and we flag when details still need checking.
- Options that look good but do not suit everyone
- Ages, pace and access needs are part of the search, not something you check afterwards.
- Plans that fall apart when the details are checked
- Time, budget and travel are held in the plan itself, so the day still adds up when you look again.
Tell us what matters.
A rainy-day family plan, a relaxed afternoon for two, a local evening with friends or something accessible for a mixed-age group all need different answers.
- Who is coming
- Ages
- Time available
- Budget
- Interests
- Access needs
- Indoor or outdoor
- Weather

Starting in Bath.
Bath is where we are starting. We are building around the places, venues, events and everyday planning questions that matter in one city we know well. Once the Bath experience is genuinely useful, we can take the model further.
Help shape the Bath beta.
Beta testers may be local residents, people visiting Bath or people who regularly organise days out for others. Here is what we would ask of you.
- 1Test whether the recommendations genuinely fit the group.
- 2Tell us when local information is missing or needs correcting.
- 3Check whether saving and organising a plan feels quicker.
- 4Help us understand what Bath coverage matters most.
There is no cost and no obligation. We will only send occasional emails about the beta and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Be one of the first to try it.
