New this year, you can get a picture with Magic, the mystical unicorn. He'll be roaming the grounds, so keep your eyes open.

You can also enjoy the festival through "new eyes" as you will follow clues, solve puzzles and engage with all sorts of mystical folks for Merlin's Mystical Quest. 

That's not all! Enjoy Cock-a-doodle Zoo, Throne of Swords Tavern and Wizard's Flight School Zip Line - all new this year.
