Mega Minibeasts at the Hive, Moss Bank Park (Bolton) - June 20th

About the event

On arrival you get to choose the bug you want to be, before heading out to explore the Hive to find other bugs and discover which you trump.

After learning about some of the weirdest minibeasts from around the world, you will go on a bug hunt. You will explore the site searching for insects, looking under tree stumps and amongst the long grass.

And there’s more, you get to make a seed bomb to take home with you. Plants are so important for all beasties, so as your seeds grow they will provide food and shelter for minibeasts.

With the bugs hunting done a delicious ice cream awaits all our budding entomologists.

Due to Covid restrictions ticket numbers are strictly limited to act quickly to secure your place.
