Peter Rabbit On Tour Details
Peter Rabbit is going on tour and making a special stop at the Emma Bridgewater Factory!
Our huge Peter Rabbit statue (dressed in his Peter in the Garden pattern) is in residence from 18 May to the end of June, ahead of his next stop on the Tails on the Tyne art trail this summer in support of St Oswald's Hospice. Come during May half term or June for a proper meet-and-greet and photo with a very busy bunny on tour.
Be among the first to shop selected pieces from our Emma Bridgewater x Peter Rabbit collection at the Stoke Factory Gift Shop from 18 May. Two brand-new patterns will be available exclusively in Stoke before launching online in July (very limited tour merch, you might say). Please kindly note a few of the pieces won’t be ready until July, including our coddlers, quilts, bunting & tea towels.
Try your hand at our iconic sponge decorating technique in the studio (booking required). It’s creative, fun, and suitable for all ages... Peter approves.
Enjoy a free children’s trail around the courtyard and walled garden, with a tasty treat waiting at the end for successful explorers.
Relax with our summer menu and enjoy delicious snacks and drinks, perfect refuelling for rabbit spotters.
