Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Arrive early during half-term week to maximize your time, especially if you plan to attend the 'Creepy creature' time sessions or 'Venoms Vs Poisons' talks, as these have specific timings.
- Consider purchasing a 'ride all day wristband' if you plan on enjoying multiple fairground rides, as individual tokens can add up, especially for the VR ride and Ghost Train.
- Bring your child's Halloween costume for half-term week to receive a treat from the admissions team – it's a great way to add to the festive spirit!
- Check the daily timetable at the barn entrance for 'Creepy creature' meet and greet sessions during half-term, as these are popular and have limited availability.
- If you have young children (6-10 years old) interested in animals and science, book the 'Dung Detectives Poo Workshop' in advance, as spaces are limited and it's an additional cost.
