Once There Was Magic

The must-see attraction is now open at Seven Stories!

In this interactive hour-long experience, you and your bubble will be guided through the Wild Woods (from the fabulous Cressida Cowell Wizards of Once novels) by one of our Story Catcher wizards; journeying through 'fiery' portals featuring magical worlds from some of our most loved authors including Narnia, Discworld and Hogwarts. Each 'world' includes original artwork, manuscripts and other glimpses into the making of these stories, as well as a fun puzzle and special effects for the whole family. Solve the challenge and you can move on to the next portal with your wizarding guide... 

Suitable for ages 7+ due to lighting and special effects. Open weekends and school holidays, 10am - 4pm. 

Tickets are £9.50 per person. Minimum group size is 2 people, maximum is 6 people. Babies under 12 months are free.

You must arrive promptly to allow all our visitors to enjoy the experience. We recommend you arrive at least ten minutes before your booked slot as latecomers may not be admitted.

Tickets are non-transferable and non-refundable unless cancelled by Seven Stories. This still applies even if you can no longer attend because of illness or self-isolation. Seven Stories reserves the right to amend or cancel events as necessary and will offer a full refund in case of cancellation.
