Step into Paddington’s World
The Paddington Bear Experience is an immersive adventure located in the heart of London. Guests are invited to step into the world of Paddington Bear, starting at the iconic Paddington Station. From there, they embark on a train journey through London’s sights and sounds, arriving at the Browns' home at No. 32 Windsor Gardens. Visitors explore the Browns’ tree-adorned hallway, multiple rooms in their home, and beyond, all while helping Paddington prepare for the Marmalade Day Festival —the most spectacular party Windsor Gardens has ever seen!
