Paddington Visits

Discover our new interactive map celebrating Paddington Visits, a trail of Paddington statues across the UK and Ireland. As we look forward to the release of Paddington In Peru, in cinemas November 8, these new statues will be permanently placed in iconic locations, where people can go and ‘meet’ their cuddly hero, sit and enjoy the location or explore a short walk from the area. Find your nearest Paddington!
