Magic in the Museum: The Christmas adventure arrives at Lapworth Museum of Geology
A new immersive festive experience is coming to the Lapworth Museum of Geology in Birmingham this Christmas, inviting visitors to step inside an interactive story and help save Christmas.
“Magic in the Museum: The Christmas Adventure” is a 1–1.5 hour, app-guided game created by Cardboard Clues. Using their phones, teams explore the galleries, search for clues, and follow cardboard Christmas characters, including a mischievous elf, as they unravel the story of a missing magical artefact that powers Christmas, solving festive puzzles and challenges along the way.
Earlier this year, more than 900 teams played Cardboard Clues’ previous adventure at the Lapworth, and the company is delighted to return with a brand new festive experience set among the museum’s dinosaur fossils and spectacular geological displays.
The experience is designed for children, teens and adults to enjoy together, and costs £20 per team of up to five players.
Creator Darrell Cannon said:
“I absolutely love Christmas, and I wanted to create something that felt magical but still accessible. With three kids of my own, I know how expensive festive days out can be, so I wanted to make something families could enjoy together at an affordable price. Magic in the Museum is designed to be immersive, playful, full of surprises (with just a little bit of Christmas corny-ness) while getting people to explore the museum in a completely different way.”
Magic in the Museum: The Christmas Adventure runs at the Lapworth Museum of Geology from 22 November to 4 January.
Cardboard Clues will also return in the new year with a brand new murder mystery adventure.
