The star of one of the most widely read children’s book series of all time is making a special appearance at the Milton Keynes theme park, Gulliver’s Land this summer.
Young fans of David McKee’s beloved children’s book character Elmer the Patchwork Elephant can meet their hero at Gulliver’s Land this summer.
The star of one of the most widely read children’s book series of all time, Elmer is making special appearances at the Milton Keynes theme park throughout August and looking forward to meeting lots of families – and having his picture taken with them too.
Elmer was created by author David McKee and the 44 books in the series are published by Andersen Press.
Sue Conway, Resort Director at Gulliver's Land, said: “We are thrilled to be teaming up with David and Andersen Press to welcome such a popular character to the Gulliver’s family. The Elmer books promote inclusivity and friendship, themes that have resonated with millions of young readers around the world, and these are themes that mean so much to everyone at Gulliver’s.”
Sue continued, “It’s particularly special to have Elmer with us during 2024, as it is a major milestone for both Elmer and Gulliver’s Land – Elmer is celebrating his 35th birthday, while it is 25 years since we first opened our doors.”
Families visiting Gulliver’s Land have more than 50 exciting rides and attractions to enjoy, including The Runaway Train, The Jungle River Ride, and the Dragon Siege 360-degree pendulum. The theme park also boasts Gulliver’s Dinosaur & Farm Park which is adjacent to the resort.
Those adventure-seekers looking to turn their time at Gulliver’s Land into an overnight stay can take advantage of a range of fantastic accommodation options, including Princess Suites, Dinosaur and Unicorn themed lodges, Western Lodges and Woodland Lodges.
