Dragon Guardians - Terms and Conditions & FAQ

For tickets go to: Coming Soon

There is a Dragon hidden in South Norwood Country Park. It’s been asleep for thousands of years. The Dragon Guardians are looking for new recruits to help take care of her. Do you have what it takes?

This activity based show is aimed to bring families together and give them the chance to rediscover their local parks with new eyes. This show will introduce the audience to themes of conservation, nurturing wildlife and its significance and will teach some basic survival skills. The show will be outdoors in all weathers and aims to challenge imaginations and introduce people to the natural world on their backdoor.

The show will take place in South Norwood Country Park. The starting point will be outside The Kiosk by the play park. Important to note that parking is limited and you should find other means to come to the park if possible. There are NO toilets onsite.

This is an original story for four to eight year olds and we only have space for 20 children in each show. We do this so the show is as interactive and enjoyable for all taking part. We do ask that each child is accompanied by one adult each. This show is one hour and on the move in the park so we ask that you please dress accordingly and ensure everyone is able to walk for the entire hour of the show.
