Mudfest 2025

Stomp, splash and squelch this February Half Term!

No-one does mud quite like us. Make it, mix it, mould it and build with it, sling it, paint it and jump in it. This February half term, head to a centre near you for muddy activities kids of all ages will love.

Book tickets

Go mad for mud with our activities:

  • Mud kitchen - whip up a treat (just not one you can eat) in the mud kitchen. Use pots and pans to mix up a treat in our mud kitchen.
  • Mud slinging - embrace mess. Throw mud at the target in our mud slinging contest. Scoop it, aim it, sling it – and score points for hitting the target!
  • Nest building - craft a safe and sturdy mud nest, just like the ones our wetland birds live in. Make a wetland bird and learn how to craft a nest from mud and materials
  • Muddy puddle splashing - put on your wellies, limber up and see how far you can puddle jump! Rain or shine, we can guarantee puddles of all shapes and sizes. Splosh your way through muddy puddles, big and small.

Cost: All activities are included in admission ticket or free for WWT members. You can just turn up on the day or if you are not a WWT member you can pre-book online.
