Two Tails Productions has teamed up with Wakehurst and Aardman to bring a cracking autumn adventure to the Sussex woodlands!
Running across the October Half Term (17th October to 1st November 2026), the Wallace & Gromit Fantastic Fungi Trail invites families to become field assistants for the famous inventor and his loyal pal. Visitors follow the trail through Wakehurst’s autumn landscape, uncovering the surprising “tricks and treats” of fungi, from Devil’s fingers and Shaggy Inkcaps to the fairy-tale Fly Agaric, all while keeping their precious scientific records out of the flippers of Feathers McGraw.
Working alongside the Wakehurst and Aardman teams, Two Tails Productions led the concept design and development of the trail, shaping a playful storyline and a series of hands-on trail points rooted in how fungi help woodlands thrive. In addition to designing a brand new Wallace invention, ‘The Fantastic Fungi Finder’, guided by the brilliant expertise at Aardman, our teams fabricated and installed the experience, bringing an all-new Wallace and Gromit adventure to life in Wakehurst’s beautiful surroundings.
We’re delighted to be working alongside Wakehurst and Aardman once again, on such a unique, alternative Halloween experience, and it’s a joy to see families swapping frights for fungi facts.
The trail is open now until 1st November, so there’s still time to grab an activity pack and help Wallace and Gromit crack the case.
