We’ve teamed up with Gloworm Festival to give two lucky familes a truly magical adventure at Gloworm Festival this summer...
Taking place Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 August 2026 at the historic Thoresby Park, Gloworm is a family festival where imagination can run wild and unforgettable memories are made.
Designed especially with families in mind, the festival brings to life a vibrant world of live shows, themed zones and hands-on experiences – with more than 100 activities, workshops and stage shows all included in the ticket price with no hidden extras.
The line up includes children’s television stars Maddie Moate and Nick Cope, favourite characters such as Spongebob Squarepants and Mr Blobby, CBeebies Bedtime Stories plus loads of family focused live music and entertainment.
Families can explore immersive adventure zones filled with high-energy challenges, creative workshops, outdoor play and sensory experiences. From forest-school fun and animal encounters to circus skills, beach play, fairground rides and interactive performance spaces, there’s something around every corner to spark curiosity and joy.
The fantastic prize includes entry for a family on day of their choice with entertainment running from 10am to 10pm.
With dazzling performances all weekend and loads to do in a lovely outdoor setting, Gloworm is the perfect summer escape for families.
If you’re not lucky enough to win, there are a range of all inclusive ticket options including day passes, single parent tickets, VIP upgrades, camping and glamping.

We have a favour to ask
LeftLion is Nottingham’s meeting point for information about what’s going on in our city, from the established organisations to the grassroots. We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
