TDW in Blossom - Family Mini beast Safari

Join Wild Intrigue (opens new window) on a family-friendly exploration of the mico-world of bugs!

You will discover tips and tricks into finding different mini-beasts - from shadow-dwelling spiders and woodlice, to blossom-loving bees and butterflies, to small (but mighty!) kingdoms hidden in plain site. Even the smallest creatures leave their mark, so we will explore the 'tracks and signs' which mini-beasts leave behind too, and discover the important roles that each play in our urban ecosystem.

You will also discover the fine art of worm charming....

The walk will be very short (we don't need to travel far to discover mini-beasts!)

Meeting point: Meet outside The Staiths Space, Dunston Staiths, Gateshead (https://w3w.co/jokes.spoil.waving).

Mini beast Safari is a free event - please book your spaces. If you are no longer able to attend please let us know so we can re-open the spaces for others to join.

Great for all ages! Under 18s must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult.

The event is part of North East in Blossom 2025 celebrations, supported by players of People's Postcode Lottery.
