Arrival Time

Play - Standard Play tickets are valid all day. You can arrive and leave whenever you wish, within the opening hours.

Workshops - All day access to the play areas is included with all workshop tickets, regardless of your workshop start time so you can arrive anytime from when we open. BUT please arrive no later than 10 minutes before your workshop is due to start. It is your responsibility to arrive in plenty of time for your workshop so please plan accordingly. Workshop start times cannot be delayed under any circumstances so in the event of a late arrival you may forfeit your booking (with no refund) if another suitable workshop is not available that day.

Workshops
