Launch of Paddington's 60th Anniversary 2018

A global celebration of Paddington's history and heritage, and looking to the next 60 or so years! 

2018 marks 60 years since Michael Bond’s first book was published, which brought Paddington into the home of so many more families than just the Browns.

Over the years he’s been seen and loved in many different guises.  With an upcoming TV show and exciting new events to come, let's hope Paddington has got enough marmalade sandwiches to keep him going! 

Where will the Paddington adventure take us next?  Hold onto your hats as this year will take you through the past and look forward to the future.
