✨Wee Weekender | 31 Jan–1 Feb – Glitterbombs, Grapples & Dragon Tunes!

Hello Wee Weekenders!

January's almost oot the door (can we get an amen?), and we're seeing it off with a sparkle, a suplex, and a fire-breathing finale.

Whether you're in the mood for fairy crafts, 80s flashbacks, or just need a decent excuse to eat your body weight in pastries, we’ve got your weekend sorted. Six epic events, one legendary lineup.

Now grab your glitter wand or wrestling belt — let’s do this! 👇

There’s sparkle zones, selfie spots, confetti showers and even fairy juice (yes, really). Perfect for mum & daughter duos, besties, or anyone needing a main character moment.
