Celebrate The Magic Faraway Tree! - Nottingham

Step into a world of imagination and explore the Enchanted Wood as we celebrate Enid Blyton’s beloved classic, The Magic Faraway Tree.

Enjoy facepainting and party games as you visit the Land of Birthdays!

Stop by the Land of Goodies for mouthwatering biscuit decorating!

Go on a treasure hunt in the Land of Spells and find the magical characters hidden around the bookshop!

Whether discovering The Magic Faraway Tree for the first time or revisiting an old favourite, join Waterstones Nottingham to celebrate this timeless story, now a major motion picture!

Parents and carers can accompany children for free. The book and ticket package includes a newly re-jacketed edition of the first book in The Magic Faraway Tree series.

This event is part of Waterstones Nottingham Children’s Gala which is taking place from Saturday 28th March to Saturday 4th April. Why not check out the rest of our events?

Did you know that 2026 is also the National Year of Reading? A Department for Education initiative, in collaboration with The National Literacy Trust, the campaign aims to tackle the profound decline in reading enjoyment in the UK and reconnect people of all ages with reading as a relevant and immediately rewarding activity. Our children’s gala is one of the ways in which we are helping to encourage a love of reading! Find out more at National Year of Reading 2026 | National Literacy Trust
