Important Information for the Day

This event is a little different to our usual Member Days, as your ticket includes entry to two incredible Welsh attractions – The Royal Mint Experience and A Welsh Coal Mining Experience (Rhondda Heritage Park).

When booking, you’ll need to select your tour start time. The second venue’s tour time will be automatically allocated based on your first selection and can’t be changed once confirmed.

You can choose either:

  • Morning tour at The Royal Mint Experience and afternoon tour at A Welsh Coal Mining Experience, or
  • Morning tour at A Welsh Coal Mining Experience and afternoon tour at The Royal Mint Experience.

Members will need to drive between the two venues, which are approximately 15 minutes apart. You’re welcome to spend time exploring either attraction before or after your scheduled tour, enjoying the cafés, exhibitions and gift shops at your leisure.

Simply present your Boundless e-ticket at each venue’s main reception on arrival for admission. There will be no Boundless team on-site, but your exclusive member savings still apply exactly the same way.
