This Easter marks Paradise Park’s 40th Birthday!

To start the 40th Birthday celebrations for Paradise Park, during Easter weekend 29th March to 1st  April, staff will be dressed up in a 1970’s theme, plus there will be some giveaways, specially reduced prices for a variety of items available at the park, and of course the Egg quiz trail with mini chocolate egg prizes. The Egg Hunt will run right through the 2 week holiday.  Keep a check on the Park’s website for all the latest.

It’s a great time to make a visit and catch up with all your favourite birds and animals, and for special events like a penguin photocall where you can meet the friendly penguins up close, and the ‘Flight of the Rainbows’ where you can buy small pots of nectar to feed the colourful little Lorikeet parrots.

The amazing ‘Eagles of Paradise’ display gives you the opportunity to see birds like Archie the Bald Eagle. In the afternoon watch the  ‘Free Flying Bird Show’, see and learn as macaws and conures fly over your head and in-between the crowds.

The brilliant ‘JungleBarn’ indoor play centre has challenging soft play, giant slides plus a special toddlers’ area and cafe. Also enjoy our outdoor ‘Paradise Island’ adventure play area.

Great value Return Tickets, just £3.95 for another visit in 2013. Phone our 24 hour Infoline 01736 751020 or visit our website www.paradisepark.org.uk

Pirates of the Cornish Riviera... Okay so maybe it’s not quite the Caribbean...

 AHOY me hearties!
Now you listen to me young pirates. There be a special event arriving on these shores very soon.

And it’s all happening in Paradise!

Methinks you should get yourselves down to Paradise Park this half term for Pirate Week 16th to 24th Feb. Show what you're made of with swashbuckling fun as you chart the course on the trail of gold coins where X marks the spot, and don’t miss the chance to meet Long John Tredinnick and his loyal band of parrots.

For the more creative amongst you, we have a Captain Flint parrot toy making workshop every day between 2pm and 3pm.

And if the weather is foul... you can walk the rope bridge, climb the nets, slide down the... slides, and the little ones can try their hand at the ball fountain. So make sure you don’t miss the adventures of the indoor Pirate JungleBarn.

Plus keep a sharp eye out for the otter feeding, carrot time in the Fun Farm, and you could be chosen to help feed the penguins – more importantly for young pirates – a parrot may well sit on your shoulder at the daily parrot feeding time with the colourful Rainbow Lorikeets.

Don’t forget your camera to capture the moment, or for the penguin photocall when you can meet a friendly hand-reared penguins, Cracker and Houdini, who like nothing better than a dip in the ocean.
