The half-term week will feature heartwarming activities and adventures, inspired by Paddington's Peruvian adventures.

Eden provides the perfect location for Aunt Lucys and their families to explore the rainforest – activities on offer include:

  • A Paddington-inspired adventure through the jungle in search of six treasures of the rainforest. 
  • A special opportunity to meet and capture a memorable moment with Paddington in the Rainforest Biome. (Monday 17 to Sunday 23 only).
  • A chance to enjoy traditional folk music heard in locations such as Peru. Three-piece band Katari will entertain with authentic performances using panpipes and other acoustic instruments. 
  • A Peruvian-inspired crafts area to have a go at making knotted wristbands and get creative with some Paddington in Peru activity sheets.

Special Offer: Aunt Lucys Go Free: The Eden Project is welcoming all aunties named Lucy, and up to three children, to enjoy free entry when visiting this February half-term. Simply bring proof of your name (ID) and get ready to embark on a wonderful adventure to make some fun and enjoyable memories with friends and family.

Simon Townsend, the Eden Project’s general manager, said: “Paddington’s close relationship with his Aunt Lucy is integral to his story and shaped the endearing bear we all know and love. The Eden Project is all about connection, bringing people together and creating wonderful memories, so we are excited to welcome all Aunt Lucys to Eden this February half-term, to build relationships with their own nieces and nephews and 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.
