About This Event

Hurrah Hurray oh fabulous day, the Ugly Bugs Wingding has flown in to town! What a mesmerising jubilee for your eyes and ears! Come into a magical miniature world to meet an array of enticing insects and colourful creatures on their way to an un-bee-lievable party! The Ugly Bugs Wingding is an entrancing short puppetry show for all the family, with a beautiful puppet theatre unfolding as musical big Ugly Bugs tell a tale inspired by the fantastical book the Butterflies Ball and Grasshoppers feast. The shows are free to attend, however normal admission to the gardens apply.
