This Easter, The Paddington Bear Experience invites families to enjoy an egg-citing seasonal adventure from Saturday 28 March to Sunday 12 April 2026. With a special Easter Ticket, guests can take part in a delightful Easter egg hunt set within the wonderful world of Paddington, complete with colourful seasonal decorations and charming rewards. Tickets are available 

Taking place at County Hall on London’s vibrant South Bank, this large-scale multi-sensory interactive adventure is perfect for visitors of all ages. The immersive journey unfolds across beautifully themed rooms inspired by beloved locations from the Paddington stories, where guests meet favourite characters and take part in playful games and activities along the way.

Celebrate spring with an Easter Special Ticket, available daily from midday. Each ticket includes a delightful Easter Basket filled with Paddington-themed surprises such as Paddington ears, Paddington stickers, and a selection of tasty Easter treats including a delicious Paw Biscuit. Guests can also enjoy a marmalade-fuelled Easter Egg Hunt around Windsor Gardens, featuring seasonal decorations and cheerful rewards.

Throughout the experience, the venue will be transformed with joyful Easter and spring decorations, filling the space with colour, seasonal cheer, and plenty of marmalade-loving magic. Visitors will also discover a special Paddington-themed Easter egg installation inside the recreated Paddington Station. Young adventurers can put their detective skills to the test as they search for hidden toy Easter eggs using their own treasure map and Easter basket. Along the way, friendly favourites Mrs Bird and Mrs Brown will delight guests with Easter treats. The Easter add-on is available for £15 per child in addition to the standard entry ticket, and can be booked in advance or on-site.

Created by The Path Entertainment Group in collaboration with STUDIOCANAL KIDS & FAMILY Ltd and Lionsgate, the experience spans more than 26,000 square feet inside the iconic County Hall on the South Bank. This unique and interactive attraction brings the beloved world of Paddington Bear to life in a fun-filled way.

Visitors begin their journey at the lively Paddington Station, where a friendly Station Master welcomes guests before they embark on a vibrant train journey through some of London’s most famous landmarks, eventually arriving at the Browns’ charming home at No. 32 Windsor Gardens.

Inside the famous tree-adorned hallway, the Brown family whisk guests into a whirlwind of multi-sensory activities as everyone works together to help Paddington prepare for a very special celebration — the Marmalade Day Festival.

With themed rooms to explore, interactive games, character encounters, and plenty of delightful surprises, the adventure concludes with a joyful Windsor Gardens street party. Here, visitors can celebrate the Marmalade Day Festival with delicious food and drinks — including Paddington’s famous marmalade sandwich — while enjoying games and festivities with the Brown family.

The Paddington Bear Experience promises to delight visitors of all ages, capturing hearts and creating unforgettable family memories this Easter and beyond.
