Teletubbies

From March 23, families will be able to experience the new Peter Rabbit Hippity Hop’ ride, featuring Peter Rabbit and his friends Benjamin and Lily.

Playful Benjamin Bunny has hidden from his friends in Mr McGregor’s garden, and young guests are invited to join Peter and Lily as they explore the garden and solve puzzles to try to uncover his hiding place.

As the explorers embark on the mission they are invited to ‘unleash their inner bunny’ and hop high into the sky to see if they can find Benjamin from the top of the ride.

April will see the arrival of the Teletubbies, who will be performing a brand new live show, exclusive to guests at CBeebies Land.

The twice-daily performances in Big Fun Showtime will see children and families join Tinky-Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po in the musical ‘Teletubbies Big Band Live Show.

Ready with their music instruments, the Teletubbies will transport families over the hills and far away to the iconic Teletubbyland, where they’ll get to play-along through the interactive music and dance performance.

Guests will also have the chance to ‘meet and greet’ the Teletubbies each day following the performances before they wave Tubby Bye-Bye!

The Teletubbies and Peter Rabbit and friends, join 14 other kids’ TV favourites within CBeebies Land including the Furchester Hotel, Go Jetters, In the Night Garden, Octonauts, Postman Pat and Tree Fu Tom.
