In the Night Garden … Live
In the Night Garden Live is coming to the Mercury Theatre in 2024!
Igglepiggle, Upsy Daisy, Makka Pakka and friends are back in their fun-filled live show Igglepiggle’s Busy Day! Join Igglepiggle as he looks for his friends in the Night Garden by following their funny sounds until he finds them all!
You’ll see all your favourite characters beautifully brought to life with full-size costumes, magical puppets, and enchanting music. This show lasts just under an hour and your little ones will be amazed when they see a very special visit from the amazing flying Pinky Ponk.
Now in its 15th year, In the Night Garden Live is one of the UK’s favourite family events. Over 1.1 million people have seen it so far and it gets 4.8 out of 5 stars based on 13,774 parents’ reviews.
There are other shows for young children, but as The Independent wrote, “there’s nothing quite like In the Night Garden Live.”
Pip-pip, onk-onk!
