Corporate events at The Bug Parc

The Bug Parc is a unique visitor attraction that welcomes corporate visitors. This could be a day out for your staff or perhaps you’d like to book in for one of our team building dates.

Team building days

We can offer guided talks as your staff visit the three invertebrate houses and/or we can design team building days centred around the handling of some weird and wonderful spiders, tarantulas, insects, scorpions and other scary-looking (but ultimately lovable) critters.

Contact info@thebugparc.com to arrange your visit.

Please note

Schools will receive free entry for some supervising staff and drivers
