Things to see & do

Roll up, roll up...

This immersive family adventure takes you through a fantastical circus tent and into the woods. In amongst the trees you’ll find an amazing, marvellous, EXTRAORDINARY… Monster Funfair!  

Built entirely by monsters, our new immersive exhibition features all sorts of weird and wonderful fairground attractions – a dinosaur laser maze, a beastly fun house, mini bumble-bear bumper cars, a rollercoaster slide and lots lots more.

Created with the award-winning Nadia Shireen, this magical world also has a fairground mystery to solve – just who has stolen ALL the candyfloss? 

Monster Funfair features characters from Nadia’s books, including Billy and Fatcat, The Bumblebear, the Grimwood series and more.

Monster Funfair opens on 20 July 2024.

Tickets are available to book now.

About Nadia Shireen

In 2017, The Bumblebear was distributed to over 700,000 children as part of Booktrusts’s Time To Read campaign.
