- Treat your teddy to a new outfit, lovingly handmade by our Sewing Bee volunteers, at our Teddy Haberdashery (items are priced from £1-£7)
- Step aboard the Mobile Library bus and join our friends from Stockton-on-Tees Libraries
- Print a name tag for your favourite teddy in our printers shop
- Check out the wanted posters in our police station and see if you can find the naughty teddies hiding in our Victorian Street
Do I need to book?
There’s no need to book, just turn up on the day.
How much is it?
Most of the activities are included in the price of your museum ticket. There will be a small charge if you would like to buy an item from the Teddy Haberdashery.
You will need to buy a museum ticket on arrival. If you already have a museum ticket, don’t forget to bring it with you. See museum prices here
All of our tickets last a year, so you can visit as many times as you like over 12 months. Check out our exciting summer programme of family events and enjoy a fun-filled day out.
Is the event accessible?
