Things To Do At The Gruffalo Clubhouse

Run wild in the world of your favourite stories in this exciting, immersive experience! Burst through the pages of your favourite books into a magical place of imagination, creativity, discovery and play. Are you ready for an exciting adventure?

Meet The Gruffalo and Mouse as you clamber, crawl and slide through the depths of the deep dark wood before enrolling into Dragon School with Zog himself. Can you complete all the interactive dragon challenges?

Take on some of Madam Dragon's challenges in the medieval, soft-padded maze, test your fire-breathing skills, fly like a dragon and capture Princess Pearl from the top of the tower! Then, for your final challenge, you need to channel your inner dragon and ROAR like a dragon as you slide down the castle! Do you have what it takes to complete the Dragon School challenge? We even hear there's a special augmented-reality magic mirror that shows you your dragon wings!

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 Gruffalo Child's night-time, sensory playroom, which is a mini, magical winter-themed land where you can enjoy a balance of physical and digital sensory play!

The littlest of friends can enjoy a squashy, story-led experience with imaginative exploration in the magical Room on the Broom soft-play zone, complete with climbing frames. Climb, wriggle and slide your way through the padded narrative pieces and watch the bubbling cauldron bring the magic to life through sensory play! Lose yourself in the story as you help Witch find some of her lost belongings. How many can you find?

After you've visited all the magical lands, it's time to get even more excited for the main event as you enter the wooded Meet & Greet area and experience a party like no other! Have you got what it takes to become an exclusive Gruffalo & Friends Clubhouse member? Help the Clubhouse Crew wake The Gruffalo for a celebratory end-of-show party and meet the terrible creature himself as you pose for the best photo of the day. Depending on the time of year, you may even be lucky enough to meet another of your favourite characters...
