Description
Enter the world of JM Barrie's Peter Pan with the festive experience Neverland at Leeds Castle, in Maidstone, this Christmas, in collaboration with Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity), with adventures at every corner.
Experience Neverland
Visitors can explore the whimsical Lost Boys’ hideout, glide into the shimmering Mermaid Lagoon. Join Peter Pan himself* for an exciting quest to outwit Captain Hook* in the Salon, before ascending a spiralling staircase to Hook’s mischievous lair, filled with his sneaky plans and pirate secrets. The fun includes a suit with glowing mushrooms, sparkling fairy dust, and flourishing flowers, and enjoy a special visit from Tinker Bell* herself. Plus, photograph opportunities, inspired by the iconic Jolly Roger pirate ship.
Character Visits
* During the event, live characters will be performing on weekends and school holidays.
