Blackpool: New Peter Rabbit Attraction on the Promenade
Beloved characters from the award-winning PETER RABBIT™ animated TV series arrived at a new home on Blackpool’s famous seafront. It’s a partnership that marks the first stand-alone Merlin visitor attraction to be based on the series. And it’s a first for Blackpool! A brand-new concept and the first time Merlin has created a stand-alone attraction based on the series.
The new Peter Rabbit attraction at Blackpool is open next door to the famous Madame Tussauds Blackpool. It joins Merlin’s six other attractions including The Blackpool Tower and SEA LIFE Blackpool.
Embark on an adventure across five fluffy-tailed themed zones. You’ll need to think like a rabbit, move like a rabbit and deploy rabbit-like senses! There’s a whole burrow-full of creativity to enjoy. Complete the challenges and earn badges. See if you have the skills to join the secret treehouse club! You’ll also meet, greet and ‘high-paw’ with Peter himself – in a bumper bunny day out!
