The Paddington Bear™ Experience

Located at London County Hall on the South Bank, The Paddington Bear ™ Experience is an interactive and unique event, that the whole family will love!

Unfolding across 26,000 square feet, The Paddington Bear ™ Experience will take you into the world of the bear from ‘Darkest Peru’ and immerse you in some of the most iconic locations, culminating in a Windsor Gardens extravaganza.

Get ready to be thrown into the thick of the action as you embark on a mission to help Paddington and the Brown family prepare for a very special day, the Marmalade Day Festival.

This multi-sensory experience incorporates ground-breaking design, live performances, and video to catch the hearts of the entire family of all ages. Explore multiple themed rooms inspired by iconic locations from the Paddington stories and meet your favourite characters from the stories as you participate in games and activities.

Your journey through the rooms will begin in the hustle and bustle of Paddington Station, where you will meet the friendly Station Master. Next, hop aboard the full-sized train carriage, and travel to the Brown’s house at No. 32 Windsor Gardens, where you will explore the rooms of their home, before being transported to the jungle of Peru. Your reward for the journey? You get to help Paddington prepare for the biggest party in Windsor Gardens history and indulge in Paddington’s famous marmalade sandwiches.
