Features

Mr Gruber’s Antiques Store: Enter The Paddington Bear™ Experience through the doors of Mr Gruber’s Antiques Store and explore its unique array of curiosities and exclusive Paddington Bear merchandise. For those guests who are embarking on a last-minute adventure, tickets to the experience can be purchased at the till. For those just looking for an emergency marmalade themed treat, there’s plenty of those to be found too!
Paddington Station: Your train to Windsor Gardens will depart promptly, so don’t be late! Make sure you keep an eye on the departure board so you don’t miss it. Say hello to our Station Master, and make sure you don’t forget Paddington’s suitcase (it has Aunt Lucy’s marmalade recipe inside!) so you can get it to him in time for Marmalade Day!
The Train: All aboard! This is a non-stop train to Windsor Gardens – you can do some sightseeing of London on the way. Don’t forget to wave at all the passers-by who are also heading to Marmalade Day! The streets are paved with orange and we’re excited to celebrate!
32 Windsor Gardens: Welcome to 32 Windsor Gardens, home of Paddington and the Brown family. Get settled in as Mrs Brown welcomes you to the iconic hallway and their living room, although she may need your help as Paddington is being mischievous again!
The Kitchen: Meet Mrs Bird, who’s busy preparing treats especially for Marmalade Day. Except she’s run out of the vital ingredient – Peruvian oranges! And the fridge has broken! And the larder key has fallen down the sink! Can you help Mrs Bird restore order?
Peru: Welcome to Peru! Meet the brave explorers who are on the hunt for a talking bear, who coincidentally, have found Montgomery Clyde’s marmalade making machine! Help save the day by foraging for Peruvian oranges, power the machine by jumping on the bikes and turn those cogs to ensure a smooth jar of Marmalade is ready for the festival!
Marmalade Day Festival: ‘Hooray! You made it to the Marmalade Day festival! Celebrate Paddington’s favourite day of the year with the Marmalade Day Festival Street Party at Windsor Gardens! Don’t forget to try out Mrs Bird’s delicacies; marmalade themed of course! Dance, play, and don’t miss your chance to meet Paddington himself and snap a photo to remember this unforgettable celebration!
