StoryTrails - Newport

See your hometown in a new light

StoryTrails, a unique, multimedia storytelling experience is coming to Newport on 13 - 14 August.

It offers you the opportunity to experience Newport in a completely new way by using technology to bring hidden stories of your town/city to life.  Drop into Central Library, John Frost Square and try out a range of different immersive and virtual reality experiences or go on a guided tour of your city with the StoryTrails app as your tour guide.

In Newport the augmented reality app reveals the untold history of the Freckletons, a Windrush family with a passion for music.

The tour is narrated by Artist and researcher Adeola Dewis who was originally from Trinidad and Tobago

Time travellers need no previous technical experience and electronic mobile devices can be borrowed for the tour if you don’t have your own.

All activities are completely free so just turn up and join in.
