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.
Peter Rabbit has really been making himself at home with his new friends at @stoswaldsuk! 🐰💙
Today’s adventures included greeting visitors on the Adult Inpatient Unit reception desk, visiting the staff dining room to grab a tasty salad from chef Ryan and enjoying a spin on the roundabout in the Children & Young Adult’s Unit garden with Hayden. 🥰
Peter then hopped back to the ward for a quick catch up with the nurses, enjoyed a stroll in the gardens and was bang on time for his appointment at the Lymphoedema clinic reception. The nurses popped him on the scales to check if he had been sticking his healthy diet of radishes – we won’t embarrass him by announcing the verdict! 👀
@officialpeterrabbit and his friends will take over Newcastle and North Tyneside next summer for an exciting art trail – keep an eye on social media or visit our website via the link in our bio to keep up to date with the adventures! 🙌

The star of our 2026 trail enjoyed a day out in Newcastle and North Tyneside yesterday as we showed @officialpeterrabbit around some of the places he and his friends will be living next summer. 🐰
He started at the Civic Centre, home to our Trail Headline Partner, @newcastlecouncil. He then popped to Northumberland Street to pick up some fresh veg from the market stall, before hopping down to the Quayside to see the famous Tyne Bridge. Here, he called in on the team from NorthStandard, our Community Programme Partner and stopped for a quick selfie. 🥕📸
A quick errand next, to our @stoswaldsretail Ouseburn Donation Point where Peter Rabbit dropped of some clothes his sisters Flopsy, Mopsy and Cotton-tail had outgrown. Next stop was @newcastlecathedral before picking up a train ticket from Central Station. 🚆
Peter Rabbit’s adventure ended in Whitley Bay, where he admired @myspanishcity and felt the sand between his toes for the first time – and enjoyed some hugs from his adoring fans! 🏖️🥰

Yesterday was a hopping good day at @stoswaldsuk as we welcomed our Children and Young Adults Ambassador, @ktrippier2, on his latest visit! 💙
The @nufc Footballer was all smiles as he spent quality time with our staff, volunteers, patients, and families. But no visit would be complete without meeting our floppiest-eared VIP – @officialpeterrabbit! 🐰
Kieran couldn’t resist a snap with the mischievous legend and he shared his excitement for our new art trail that’s sure to get Newcastle and North Tyneside egg-cited next summer 🙌
