Special Events

Throughout the year we run various special events. These range from family-friendly events, such as the Teddy Bear Specials, to more enthusiast-based events such as our Galas.

Below you can see a list of the next 12 Special Events we intend to run this year. Click on the event for more information, and to book your tickets.

A full schedule of all events for this year can be found on our Timetable page.

Whilst online booking for our special events is preferred and encouraged, pre-booking is not essential for any event (excluding Santa Specials).

Please note: We stop selling tickets online at 00:01 on the day, so if tickets are no longer showing as available, it refers to online sales only – there will still be some availability on the door.
