October half-term at the Eden Project: Zog and the Flying Doctors
Hooray! Zog and the Flying Doctors have landed at the Eden Project this half-term. Meet Zog and embark on an exciting adventure like no other this Halloween.
Take flight on a whimsical quest filled with potions, pumpkins, and playful challenges at every turn, exclusively at Eden from 25 October - 2 November.
Step into a world of imagination
This October half-term, Eden will be brimming with autumn magic as Zog and the Flying Doctors swoop in for a family adventure you won’t forget! Join Zog, Princess Pearl and Sir Gadabout on a botanical quest through our Outdoor Gardens and Biomes. Explorers will hunt for hidden ingredients, meet beloved characters, and uncover clues along the way.
Say hello to Zog
Zog loves meeting new friends! He’ll be popping out to say hello for 30 minutes on the hour, every hour, in the Pavilion between 11am and 4pm every day (with his final appearance at 3pm on Sunday 2 November). Meeting Zog is very popular — and even the most enthusiastic dragon needs a little rest between flights! So after each meet-and-greet, Zog takes a 30-minute nap to recharge his wings. This is a first-come, first-served experience, so please arrive early. We can’t promise everyone will meet Zog during their chosen time slot, so you might need to wait while Zog sleeps.
This is a perfect photo opportunity, so don’t forget to come dressed up in your best dragon wings, crowns or capes – we’d love to see your costumes shared on social media. Tag us, and share with #EdenFancyDress on Instagram for your chance to win tickets to Christmas at Eden! (T&Cs apply).
Create your own magical potion to take home
Over in the Core building, budding witches and wizards can test their skills at our Halloweden potion making workshops, mixing natural ingredients to create potions to take home. And no Autumn visit would be complete without wandering among the quirky, colourful pumpkins grown right here at Eden, celebrating the season in style.
