Britain's What's On Event Guide
Wizard Week on the Watercress Line
OUR SPOOK-TACULAR WIZARD WEEK RETURNS!
THE WATERCRESS LINE TRANSFORMS INTO A PLACE OF MAGIC AND MISCHIEF FOR HALLOWEEN…
Children of all ages are invited to dress up as their favourite scary character – little monsters, ghosts, witches and wizards are welcome. There are prizes to be won at the fancy dress competition, to be held each day – with three age categories:
• Under 4s – ‘Brand New Wizards’
• 4 to 8 year olds – ‘Emerging Wand Talent’
• Overs 8s – ‘Potion Masters’
Spine-tingling treats are in store – including terrific rides on the Wizard Express heritage train and the thrill of walking in Harry Potter’s footsteps over the famous railway footbridge where Harry received his Hogwarts Express ticket in the film.
Ghouls and ghosts can ride the steam trains throughout the day and hop on and off as they wish to explore the four heritage stations. Stock up on some weird and wonderful sweet treats at Ropley Station, take part in flying lessons and be spooked by some creepy creatures.
