Hidden Kingdom Quest: Banish The Rot
Monday 28th – Wednesday 30th August
Calling all adventurers; new and old! The portal to the Hidden Kingdom is opening once again and the magical citizens need your help!
The vainglorious Professor Otto has been hard at work stabilising the portal’s magic so it can be reopened again in August. Returning heroes and new heroes are invited to explore this magical realm and embark on your very own mystical adventure. Learn about the world just beyond yours; where Dragon Riders roam, alchemists and druids practice their magic, pirates and pixies play tricks and legends are made. Make your mark on the Hidden Kingdom and be celebrated as a hero!
For those looking to enter a world of magic and intrigue. Delve into the realm of imagination and join us for an immersive and interactive story telling adventure. Meet mad King Wendell and his daughter, Princess Wensleydale. Become an apprentice to Hepzebah, the whimsical alchemist. Help us rally against the swashbuckling, invading pirates, Captain Nearly Toothless Ruth and her first mate, Clanky Dangleboots. Join the mythical Jorshimmer’s Tanglewood Tribe or learn more about the Dragon Rider’s Guild with the courageous Seraphina Hart. Create your own journey once you step through the portal into the Hidden Kingdom.
Suitable for the whole family, and primarily aimed at children from ages 5-10 years. Choose from over 30 quests, come and spend a few hours with us, or even the whole day.
