We begin the journey on 18–19 July in Ashdown Forest, where audiences can immerse themselves in nature on a special Explorer Day. Expect hands-on nature-based workshops, creative activities, and interactive encounters with a giant puppet creature inspired by endangered species found in the Forest.
Our curious creature will then set off beyond the Forest, bringing a little Ashdown magic to communities across Wealden. Look out for appearances at:
Hailsham Town Centre — 26th July
Sheffield Park and Garden — 1st August
Weald on the Field, Uckfield — 8th August
Herstmonceux Castle — 22nd–23rd August
Each stop will feature Explorer Days and special sightings, transforming towns, gardens and historic sites into moments of discovery and wonder.
Tickets for the opening weekend at Ashdown Forest go on general release at 10am on 26th May.
Wealden residents will receive priority booking from 10am on 18th May, ahead of general release.
