Make your way to The Stables classroom to get up close and personal with some of The Creepy Crawly Show’s fascinating animals.

Expert handlers will be on hand to tell you lots of facts about snakes, tarantulas, scorpions, lizards, giant African snails and more. There’s even the chance to hold some of the animals too, if you’re feeling extra brave.

Please note: The Creepy Crawly Show always try their best to bring the largest selection of animals. However, this may vary on the day to protect their animals’ welfare.

Free. No need to book. Just turn up.
