Pip and Posy Go to the Palace for New Immersive Trail in Oxfordshire
Magic Light Pictures has announced a collaboration with Oxfordshire UNESCO World Heritage Site, Blenheim Palace, to launch a Pip and Posy themed immersive trail in its family themed attraction Adventure Play this Autumn.
Currently delighting viewers on Channel 5’s Milkshake! and Sky Kids, preschool favourite Pip and Posy is inspired by the hugely popular books from award-winning illustrator Axel Scheffler and published by Nosy Crow. Packed with warmth and comedy, the top-rating series features the adventures of two best friends whose lives revolve around play and celebrates their great friendship with all its ups and downs.
Starting on 1st October, the new trail will guide children through a series of imaginative and engaging activities. Along the way, little explorers will complete tasks and traverse the immersive play area featuring secret chambers, clamber nets, tunnels, slides, rope bridges – and giant carrots!
To make this October half-term even more special, the trail will be transformed with a Halloween theme, with young guests encouraged to dress up in their favourite costumes and enjoy a variety of free activities. On Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd November there will be appearances from Pip and Poys costume characters and there will be storytelling sessions with TV tie-in books from the series too, which are also published by Nosy Crow. Readings will take place daily throughout October in Adventure Play at 11:30 and 2:00pm.
Hollie Bladen, Brand Manager at Magic Light Pictures, said: “We can’t wait to take Pip and Posy to Blenheim Palace Adventure Play this October. We love to find ways for our characters and properties to enrich and entertain children off screen and this trail will connect Pip and Posy directly with its target audience through the wonderful world of play.”
Heather Carter, Managing Director at Blenheim Palace, said: “We’re excited to work with Magic Light Pictures to bring the charm and fun of Pip and Posy to Adventure Play this October. The trail is a wonderful way for children and families to enjoy the outdoors, use their imagination, and enjoy time together. With the added Halloween twist, we’re looking forward to a truly memorable experience.”
The Pip and Posy trail at Adventure Play is set to run throughout October, with the Halloween-themed activities available exclusively during half-term week.
