About

The Forest arrives in Hailsham as Ashdown’s curious creature makes its way through the town centre for a day of surprise encounters and family fun. Keep your eyes peeled as this mystical visitor appears among the streets!

This free family event is perfect for all ages, with pop-up moments of interaction and performance throughout the day.

No booking or tickets are required – simply turn up and join the adventure in one of Wealden’s best-loved market towns.

Join us for The Big One Hundred: a brand-new programme inspired by the landscapes and wildlife of Ashdown Forest, to celebrate 100 years of Winnie-the-Pooh. Created in partnership with Ashdown Forest and award-winning creatives Trigger, the programme combines nature with storytelling and performance through a series of exciting events taking place across Wealden throughout the summer.
