Show description
The Imaginarium returns after a sold-out run last year, now expanded into a special two-day experience.
Step into a magical world where performers guide you through an immersive landscape of art, movement, light, sound, and storytelling. This year’s theme, Our Natural World, invites you to forage, adventure, dream, and connect with the beauty and possibilities of the world around us, as you explore interactive sensory environments and hands-on creative experiences.
Create alongside your young people in a space designed to rediscover the joy of being a child. Dance, build, and play with light, shadow and projection in ways that are entirely your own.
Designed by Disabled and non-disabled artists, this welcoming experience puts accessibility at its heart, creating a space where everyone can take part in their own way.
The Imaginarium is a place to explore, create, feel and grow.
