Paddington Bear is heading to Cornwall to celebrate his cinematic return to Peru. Over half term visitors to the Eden Project can embark on Paddington-inspired adventures in search of six treasures of the rainforest.
They'll need to find hidden clues and work as a team to solve puzzles, uncover hidden letters and reveal a secret word. Families will also be able to meet and capture a memorable moment with Paddington himself in the Rainforest Biome.
Inside the Mediterranean Biome there'll be traditional folk music, with entertainment from three-piece band Katari who use panpipes and other acoustic instruments. Following each performance, visitors can take part in guided music workshops.
Families can also get creative with activity sheets and a cosy crafts area to try their hand at making their own knotted wristband.
The events are taking place to mark the home release of the latest Paddington film, Paddington in Peru.
Simon Townsend, the Eden Project’s general manager, said: “Paddington in Peru is a heart-warming depiction of the diversity and spirit of the rainforest, and we are thrilled to showcase and celebrate that at the Eden Project this half-term in our own majestic Rainforest Biome and across the site.
“The Eden Project is all about connection, bringing people together and creating wonderful memories and so we are excited that visitors can spend a moment meeting Paddington here this February and can enjoy a host of fun activities together.”
Paddington in Peru brings Paddington's story back to Peru as he returns to visit his beloved Aunt Lucy, who resides at the Home for Retired Bears. With the Brown Family in tow, a thrilling adventure ensues when a mystery plunges them into an unexpected journey through the Amazon rainforest and up to the mountain peaks of Peru. Paddington in Peru is available to pre-order now.
