Attraction Information
The new Gruffalo and Friends attraction has officially opened and it's located on the famous seafront in Blackpool. It's the perfect family-friendly attraction in the midst of a cluster of family attractions - what could be more perfect, eh?
Adapted from some of the UK’s most loved children’s stories by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, your little adventure-seekers will come face to face with beloved characters from The Gruffalo, Zog, The Snail and the Whale, Room on the Broom and more!
Meet the Gruffalo and Mouse as you clamber, crawl and slide your way through the multiple depths of the deep dark wood. Enrol in Dragon School with Zog and take on some of Madam Dragon’s challenges in the medieval, soft-padded maze. Dive straight in to join Snail and Whale in the ocean-themed ball pool and enjoy a truly unique day and night experience. Those looking for a quieter and more relaxing time can step inside the GruffaloChild’s night-time, sensory playroom.
The littlest of friends can enjoy a squashy, story-led experience with imaginative exploration, in the magical, Room on the Broom soft-play zone. With 6 captivating and immersive zones, this 2-hour play experience is enjoyable for all children under 10 years old.
