Where stories come to life. Where children feel seen.
Last year, over 700 families joined us — and we sold out.
This summer, we’re doing it all again… even bigger.
Join us for a powerful day of fun, storytelling, creativity, and connection with Dapo Adeola, Mayo Agard-Olubo, Maxwell A. Oginni, Onyinye Iwu, Laura Henry Allain. Where children won’t just hear stories, they’ll experience them.
From live readings and draw-alongs to hands-on activities and unforgettable moments…
this is more than a day out.
Come in your best fancy dress (or just as you are) and dance until your feet hurt.
With games, a petting zoo, and a role play area for toddlers, it’s the perfect event for the whole family.
It’s where confidence grows.
It’s where families connect, laugh, and create memories together.
Tickets are limited, don’t miss out again.
The countdown begins, for the kids party of the summer!
