Win some tickets to Lollibop this summer, the UK’s most fabulous festival for kids! With an incredible line up of acts, performances, activities and crafts, this year looks set to be better than ever, and fantastic fun for all under 10 year olds!
Last year we went to the Lollibop Festival for kids and the girls had a wonderful time (read our review of the excellent 2012 Lollibop Festival here!) There were favourite faces like Mister Maker, stage shows such as the Go Go Go Show and plays such as The Gruffalo (which they loved so much they watched twice!) There were tents filled with fantastic arts and crafts activities, interactive storytelling sessions, play areas and live music and they talked about the fabulous day out for months afterwards.
This year we are thrilled to be official Lollibop Blog Ambassadors, and we can’t wait to report back on our time at the new event with the fantastic line up this year! We’ve had word that not only are Peppa and George coming along, but Justin Fletcher (aka Mr Tumble!) will also be doing a two live shows on the weekend days! My girls are so excited! There are going to be storytelling events, science experiments, activities for tweens and a fabulous sensory play area for babies and toddlers! The organisers really have thought out every detail so carefully to suit the needs and interests of children (and their carers) so well. 
Here are plenty more facts about this year’s LolliBop:
- LolliBop is the UK’s biggest kids festival, where all activity is aimed at the under 10s.
- The three-day event takes place from August 16 – 18 at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London.
- The line-up includes Cbeebies superstar Justin Fletcher (Saturday and Sunday only), Dick and Dom, Skylanders SWAP Force, Shaun The Sheep Championsheeps, Peppa Pig, Science Museum Live, Postman Pat, The Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Transformers, Poppy Cat, Rastamouse (Friday only) and Cloudbabies.
LolliBop’s live theatre tent – The Lollipalladiam – showcases performances from pioneering and internationally renowned companies and artists.
Tween Town is especially for older kids, with cool activities like DJ workshops, movie editing and beatboxing masterclasses.
Lolli Stops are situated throughout the festival for 3-10 year olds to get crafty, there’s also a 3ft and under zone for pre-schoolers.
The Enchanted Forest will host reading and stories, and there’s also a brand new Discovery Zone, Meadows area, Lolli Promenade and much more.

What an amazing looking festival. Please consider us for the tickets. Also love the emails with fun stuff ideas – banking them all for when our baby is old enough! Particularly liked the shaving foam and cotton wool idea and will have to sort a messy table.
Thanks for the reminder, I’ve looked at this festival for the past two years but not gone will definitely go this year my girls would love it…I’m not sure if be able to get my eldest one to leave!!!!
We’d love to go to the festival. I’ve just been looking at the photos with my 3 year old and shes excited about the possibility. Thanks for all the ideas you post on this site. We get a lot of inspiration for our toddler group.
I chance to see Mr Tumble?! Oh yes please!
would love to win this looks amazing
This sounds like so much fun, for my son and for us!!! Problem is the cost of tickets is really high, plus travel to London, that I do not know how anyone could afford to go. If we could win that means a great family day out and less impact to our meager finances. Thank you!!!!
Never heard of this festival but your correct with the brillant organisation for all ages. Would love to win tickets to take my grandaughter 3.5yrs old, she would be blown away and say WOWSER Nanny 🙂
Heard of this fest, but haven’t managed to go before… It’s a bit different to my festival! Be lovely to win tickets 🙂
So so excited about this been saveing since Xmas so that my little family can go, desperate to win tickets so my sister and her 3 children can come with us, shes recently been made redundant so had to pull out 🙁 so would love to be able to treat her and my nieces and nephew(8,5,1).

Love Lollibop and would love to go. Both me and the kids would love to see Justin 🙂
Just showed this post to Daddy. I was very excited but it seems Daddy knew all about it from seeing it advertised on the trains in London and decided to keep it quiet in case we wanted to go…! Thanks for drawing it to my attention. We will continue to harass him about it as a family for the next month- free tickets may help! X
Have never been and would LOVE to try. Sounds brilliant.
Not heard of this before! Looks great fun 🙂
Some friends of ours mentioned this festival to us a few years ago but I had forgotten the name. Sound great. Please enter us for tickets

Looks great
Would love to take my son to this, and his cousin. They’d have a ball.
15th July is my return to work after a very happy maternity leave. A fellow teacher, I am feeling strange about leaving my children to teach someone else’s. Tickets would cheer me up no end 😉
What a brilliant sounding festival! Are hoping to go up to London in the summer-what a treat this would be during our weekend!
Sounds absolutely fantastic! My girls would have a ball!
My family went to Lollibop last year and had such a great day out. I would love to go again now my daughter is a year older as I think she’d enjoy it even more!
what a wonderful chance! I’ve got friends who’ve been before, but we never have….keeping our fingers crossed 🙂

The whole family love your blog. It’s full of amazing inspiration for our messy play group too. Thanks
Sounds a really fun festival that me and my 6-year-old would love! Thank you for your lovely website too.
This looks a great place to take children! Think my girls would love it:) thanks as always for a great blog!
My son and I went to Lollibop last year, this year we want to take one of our friends who recently became a single parent to enjoy summer in style. Our favourite was probably Dick and Dom , the food and free drinks floating around. Totally great event , can’t wait to go.
Think our nearly 3 year old twins would love it.
Hi, I love, love, love your blog! I consult it every few days for ideas for my own children and my EYFS setting. Please, please, please consider us for these amazing tickets. Thank you. x
Ooooohhh im heading to London on the 15th already so tickets to this would just be the icing on the cake 🙂
Sounds like heaven for children! Love the website!
This looks amazing!! I think my twin boys would love this!!
I would absolutely love to win this as my three year old is a huge fan of Mr Tumble. Good luck everyone 🙂
I considered going to this last year but decided it would be too much for a one year old and three years year old with the travel as well. A year on and I think it would be beyond amazing for them both, especially in its new venue which is easier for us to get to and will be fantastic to see again now the Games are over! Please consider us for the prize!
This would make a fantastic first festival experience for my little one! I think I’d be equally (if not more) excited : )
Thanks Imagination tree… would love to go!

Wow – what an amazing idea a festival especially for children. As we have finally got a beautiful summer it sounds perfect. Love your website, all inspires me to do something more creative with my son and frequently involves us both covered in goo and paint good for both of us.
We went to Lollibop in 2010 & 2011 and thought it was a great event for children. Our daughter is now rising 4 and I think it would be perfect for her age group – especially if Mister Maker will be there!
Not seen this festival before – would love to go!
Have never heard of this event but it looks fab, I am sure my two under 5yr olds and the little girl I childmind would love to go along given the chance! If I don’t win, have yourselves lots of fun being ambassadors! xx
