Hold on to your sandwiches! The Very Hungry Caterpillar is visiting Marwell Zoo!

This summer, Marwell Zoo is proud to be hosting a fun interactive trail inspired by Eric Carle's bestselling children's book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. From 24th July to 1st September.

The trail tells the popular children's story through a series of supersized 3D installations guaranteed to thrill fans. Guests will be able to follow The Very Hungry Cater-pillar's many, many footsteps, winding their way through the giant apple, pear archways and plum tunnels!

Make sure you count 1 apple, 2 pears, 3 plums, 4 strawberries and 5 oranges before arriving at a virtual feast of cheese, sausages, cake and sweets. Then snuggle up safe and warm before turning into a beautiful butterfly with our butterfly wings photo opportunity suitable for all ages.

Augmented reality (AR) elements will allow guests to view extra content through a smartphone or tablet making the experience even more immersive. The interactive trail is guaranteed to ignite imaginations and provide lots of photo opportunities, counting practice and creative play.
Don't forget our fantastic value family tickets which admit a family of 5 for £85. These tickets must be booked online, and groups must consist of a maximum of two adults and a minimum of one child.
