Peppa Pig: Surprise Party at Metrocentre has closed
Peppa Pig: Surprise Party at Metrocentre is no longer open, despite previously published event details listing a run from 21 August to 1 November 2026. The NewcastleGateshead Events page now carries a clear closure notice, so families should not travel to the venue expecting admission.
The immersive experience was listed for the Upper Green Mall at Metrocentre, Gateshead, with a price of £21.50 and a stated start time of 15:17. It was intended for children aged one to six and their families. Anyone with an existing customer enquiry can contact hello@peppapigsurpriseparty.co.uk.

Why the closure notice matters
The event information gave an opening date of 21 August 2026 and an end date of 1 November 2026, but the source currently states that Peppa Pig: Surprise Party has closed. That closure notice takes precedence over the earlier dates and price when deciding whether to visit.

No revised opening schedule, alternative venue or reopening date appears in the supplied details. The previous £21.50 price should therefore be read as part of the original listing, not as confirmation that tickets or admission remain available.
What the Metrocentre experience was designed to include
The attraction placed young visitors inside Peppa Pig’s world as they helped Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig prepare a surprise party. Families boarded a train to Peppatown before moving through hands-on activities and familiar locations.

Planned highlights included:
- Visiting The Aquarium and Peppa’s House
- Meeting familiar characters including Granny Pig and Grandpa Pig
- Decorating cakes and creating party gifts
- Joining a final celebration with Peppa, George, Mummy Pig, Daddy Pig and Baby Evie
- Meeting, hugging and high-fiving Peppa and her family
The characters at the final celebration were presented as puppets. The format centred on children taking part in the preparations, exploring the setting and interacting with the characters rather than simply watching a performance.
