👻 Not long to go until Halloween Week at the Model Town! 🎃

From Saturday 24th October to Saturday 31st October, the Model Town will be getting suitably spooky for our final event of the season.

There’ll be plenty of Halloween fun to enjoy, including:

🎃 The Famous Halloween Quiz
👻 Scary Face Painting
🧙‍♀️ Spooky Storytelling
😳 Dare To Enter The Halloween House
🕷️ Sweetie Cauldron Lucky Dip

And plenty more besides!

It’s our last event before we close for our Winter Workshop, so make sure you don’t miss your chance to join us for a frightfully fun visit.

🍂 Only a few weeks left to visit the Model Town this year! 🏡

Our gates will close after Sunday 1st November, so if you’ve been meaning to squeeze in one more visit, now’s the time.

There’s still plenty to enjoy before then, including our final event of the season, Halloween Week from 24th to 31st October 🎃

Enjoy a wander around the Model Town, explore the gardens, visit the model railway and make the most of these lovely autumn days before we close for the season.

We’re open daily from 10am to 5pm until then, and remember, tickets are valid for 12 months, so you can use them again when we reopen next season too ☺️

Nothing better on a cloudy autumn day, than to wander the miniature streets of Wimborne 🍂

🎶 Goldirocks is coming to the Model Town! ✨

We’re very excited to be welcoming Goldirocks, one of the stars of Once Upon A Rhyme, to Wimborne Model Town on Saturday 10th October from 10.30am to 11.30am.

Goldirocks will be popping in to explore the Model Town and, most importantly, meet and greet the children visiting us that morning. So if you have a little Once Upon A Rhyme fan in the family, make sure you come along and say hello!

Goldirocks will then be rocking out on stage as part of Once Upon A Rhyme at the Tivoli Theatre in Wimborne on Sunday 25th October, a fun-filled family show bringing favourite nursery rhyme characters to life through music, dancing and plenty of singing along.

Come and meet Goldirocks at the Model Town on Saturday 10th October. We can’t wait to welcome her! ✨
