Expect minibeasts and massive beats in this fun, family show!

Which beetle has a blaster on its bottom? And which minibeast is barely the size of a full stop?

Join poet Simon Mole and musician Gecko for a family show full of poems, raps and songs all about your favourite bugs (and some you haven’t heard of yet!).

This show is a fun and interactive invitation to explore the secret world beneath our feet. As well as being brilliantly beautiful, delightfully disgusting and wonderfully weird, The Great Big Bug Show is an inspirational call to action to appreciate the smaller creatures in our world.

All attendees need a ticket.
