Hop, skip and jump into an art adventure for everyone to enjoy!
Wednesday 15th July – Monday 14th September 2026
Peter Rabbit™: Tales on the Tyne is a glorious celebration of everything we love about our region. Its beautiful parks, bustling streets and public spaces will come alive with colour and conversations, as our collection of individually designed and painted Peter Rabbit sculptures bring joy (and a little bit of mischief) to the summer of 2026.
A dedicated trail map and App will help you navigate your way to discovering each sculpture, where you can unlock a series of rewards and fun facts.
Local schools and community groups will also have an exciting opportunity to decorate their own little Peter Rabbit sculpture, which will form its own mini trail and take over venues across Newcastle. This learning programme will help to engage and inspire people to unleash their ideas and creativity.
Following the public trail, the large Peter Rabbits will be auctioned off to raise vital funds and awareness of St Oswald’s Hospice, allowing the charity to continue their vital work with North East families with life-limiting conditions.
Calling all artists and creatives… this is your one week warning! ⏰🐰
There are just seven days until applications to design and paint a @officialpeterrabbit sculpture close. Could you turn this beautiful blank canvas into something unique and magical, to dazzle visitors to our trail this summer?
We are particularly looking for creatives based in the North East to showcase their talents. 🎨
You have until the end of Friday 13th February to submit up to three designs via our website. Click the link in our bio to find everything you need to enter. Good luck! 💙🐇

December has been totally bun-kers for @officialpeterrabbit! 🐰💙
He’s been hopping all over the North East, meeting brilliant people and discovering some festive new spots along the way.
From not one but two Christmas light switch-ons in Gosforth and Ouseburn, to spreading cheer at our festive corporate networking event, lending a paw at events at the space, popping into our Dunston @stoswaldsretail shop, and even tunnelling his way over to say hello to the team at @tyne_tunnels (and their amazing Grinch display 💚)
