Step into a magical Secret Garden in the Cathedral Ruins. Nature is coming to life and needs your help to grow!
Discover a world of animal characters, interactive performances, storytelling, crafts and hands-on activities designed especially for children and families to enjoy. Explore, create and play as you uncover the wildlife, plants and green spaces that surround us every day.
Packed with plenty of opportunities to laugh, learn and get involved, our Secret Garden is a place to make memories, create something special to take home and celebrate the nature that makes Coventry thrive.
