Exciting new play area development coming to WWT London
We are excited to announce that we are opening a new Splash Pad in 2025
As well as this exciting upgrade we are also adding new equipment to other areas of Explore to enhance your experience and increase the fun!
Over the next few months, you will see building works begin in our Explore Play Area as we undertake this exciting development.
We work continuously to improve the visitor experience at our site as well as the homes for the animals and we aim to keep disturbance to a minimum.
Key features
- Ready for May half term: Multi-Play Climber and Trail Course. Created with the planet in mind these pieces of equipment are made of structural elements made from textile waste and foil, as well as boards made from fishing nets and ropes recovered from the oceans.
- Ready for Summer: Brand new water play equipment featuring water tunnel, multiple spurts and fountains, interactive puddles and more! Our popular rain shower feature will remain.
- All new wetpour surfacing in upgraded areas.
- Replacing and modernising our water filtration system to conserve water and energy.
Closures: Explore play areas will remain open where possible with certain areas closed off until work is completed. Our wet play area will be closed until the new facility is opened in June. We had hoped this would be available for May half term but has been delayed slightly due to building works beyond our control.
We are sorry for this delay and cannot wait to share this exciting new development with you when it opens.
