What’s The Pollinarium?

Located in the Artists’ Garden, The Pollinarium will enhance your perception to help you see, hear, and feel the natural environment in new and exciting ways.

Follow a bee’s journey as a pollinator through its own eyes and ears, experiencing its many senses first-hand. Life will appear to pass by in slow motion as they process four times more visual information per second than humans.

Admission to The Pollinarium is free and there’s no need to book – just turn up to the Artists’ Garden.
