About

Join us in the centre of Gloucester for a surprise visit from the very special Moomintroll!

 

Moomintroll is coming to Gloucester to help celebrate 80 years of the Tove Jansson's beloved Moomin stories. Moomintroll embodies the spirit of adventure, friendship and kindness at the heart of these stories, and it will be his first ever visit to our city, so come and say hellow and make a Moomin feel welcome!

 

Find Moomintroll between 11:30am and 5pm on Sat 21 June at some of Gloucester's favourite city centre landmarks, including Gloucester Docks in the morning, at the Moomin Picnic in Kings Sqaure at lunchtime and at the Moomin ABC Exhibition at Museum of Gloucester in the afternoon.

 

The perfect place to meet Moomintroll will be at the Moomin Picnic, on from midday until 6pm. With free food and drink tasters, free ice cream, a fantstic Moomin puppetry show, music, facepainting, games and more, this free family day out is the perfect way to spend a Saturday. Just grab a picnic blanket, a picnic, your family and friends, and we'll see you there!
