Britain’s best-loved comic has entertained the nation for more than 80 years and now Dennis, Gnasher, Minnie and all their friends will be rattling the world-famous Biomes with their unique brand of fun and mayhem.
From July 23 to September 4, visitors will be invited to join the pals on a quest to save Eden and the world from global warming and the dreaded CO2-Zilla – the real menace of Beanotown.
As readers of the comic will know, in Beanotown, kids rule, and at Eden kids will be in charge, challenging the grown-ups to disrupt the status quo and break the rules (in a positive way).
A special Beano comic strip will guide visitors on a wild journey around Eden, discovering activities and missions to help all of Beanotown on their crusade to save planet Earth and allowing visitors to earn their black and red stripes.
Kate Francis, Living Theatre Producer, said: “Beano is an absolute classic that is loved by generations. We can’t wait to welcome the mischievous Beano gang to the Eden Project to tell the story of global warming in a new and engaging way.
“Expect antics and hijinks in the name of discovery and planet-saving adventure. Stripes, of course, encouraged!”
Vanessa Andreis, Franchise Planning and Partnerships Director, Beano Studios, said: “We can’t wait for kids and their families to share Beano fun and mischief this summer at the Eden Project in Cornwall. Our special comic strip brings to life such an important topic in a way that will engage and entertain everyone who visits.”
The epic pursuit will see families exploring the whole of Eden’s great outdoors and Biomes, with games, crafts and activities across the site. Catapults and peashooters at the ready…
