To celebrate World Wetlands Day on 2 February 2025, we're inviting nature-lovers to claim a FREE admission ticket and explore their local wetland.

Celebrate World Wetlands Day with us!

We're inviting nature-lovers to enjoy a free visit to our wetlands. Simply claim your free ticket by entering a valid email address when clicking the button below. Once registered you'll be able to use your free ticket to explore our site anytime from Friday 31 January - Friday 7 February.

Armed with a beautifully illustrated ‘penny-coin’ map that highlights hidden corners and unseen sights, leave things to chance with the flip of a coin, and let fate decide your journey around the site.

This could include breath-taking views of the River Severn from the Estuary Tower roof terrace to meandering through the Waterscapes Aviary watching species from little egret to European oystercatcher up close.

Wetlands are inspiring spaces that quiet the noises of everyday life and create a world where amazing things can happen. It’s our mission at WWT to restore these wonderful places and give people a better connection to nature.

This World Wetlands Day, make the most of this great opportunity to get lost in nature and unlock the superpowers of wetlands!

Research has shown that just ten minutes in a wetland setting, like a marsh, lake or river, is enough to boost your mood. For those that aren’t able to get out into a wetland in person, we'll be sharing the sights and sounds of wetlands digitally on our website and social media channels.

WWT champions wetlands 365 days a year. And on 2 February, the world comes together to celebrate these super-powered habitats. Wetlands are water-purifying, flood-busting, nature-boosting, carbon-sinking and mood-lifting habitats, that burst with life.
