PADDINGTON BEAR IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE HEADS TO THE SOUTHBANK
Help Paddington Prepare for The Marmalade Festival in New, Interactive Adventure
Everybody’s favourite, Peruvian bear is getting the immersive treatment, with The Paddington Bear™ Experience.
Launching on 31 May, the marmalade-addled, interactive adventure across more than 26,000 square feet of Southbank’s London Country Hall will invite guests into a series of themed rooms, inspired by iconic locations from the Paddington stories.
Fittingly, it kicks off at Paddington Station, where guests will be greeted by a friendly Station Master and taken on a colourful train journey through London’s most famous landmarks, to the Browns’ charming, No. 32 Windsor Gardens home.
Once inside the famous, tree-adorned hallway, guests will embark on a multi-sensory adventure to help the Brown family and Paddington prepare for the all-important Marmalade Day Festival.
With a gaggle of themed rooms to explore, interactive games, character interactions, and lots of surprises along the way, the adventure will culminate in a Windsor Garden Street party, where visitors can enjoy the Marmalade Day Festival they’ve helped to create.
A range of food (including Paddington’s famous marmalade sandwich) and drinks will be available, as well as games with the Brown family.
The event's themed shop - based on Mr Gruber’s Antique Store - is open now, giving a marmalde-flavoured taste of the experience, as well as cuddly merch and a chance to bag tickets to the event.
Tickets are on sale now for the family adventure, created by The Path Entertainment Group in collaboration with The Copyrights Group (a STUDIOCANAL company) and Lionsgate.
David Hutchinson, CEO of The Path Entertainment Group says: "For over three years, we have been working on the launch of the most ambitious Paddington inspired experience in the world, opening in the heart of Central London.
"We look forward to welcoming fans of all ages to enjoy the magical world of Paddington that our incredible team has created.”
The Paddington Bear™ Experience, London County Hall, Westminster Bridge Road, SE1 7PB. From 31 May. Adult tickets £34pp. Children (2-15) £24. Under 2s go FREE.
