Description

The UK's only Sand Sculpture Festival, Step into a world of creativity at SandWorld, where breathtaking, larger-than-life sand sculptures are crafted by some of the world’s most talented artists. Located in Weymouth’s Lodmoor Park, this unique, all-weather attraction brings incredible works of art to life using nothing but sand and water! During this year's event, 5th April - 9th November 2025, see creatures that lived 83 million years ago, a full-colour Egyptian Prince, kids' favourite characters and incredible, inspirational, original artwork from some of the world's finest sand artists. There is something for everyone!

Enjoy hands-on workshops and family-friendly activities. You are never too young or too old to create your own mini masterpiece. With daily workshops, plus, plenty of tools and water available, you can enjoy hands-on creativity whilst turning your ideas into 3D art. This year is extra special as SandWorld celebrates 100 years of Sand Sculpting Heritage in Weymouth. Fred Darrington, Mark Anderson's grandfather, first began sand sculpting in Weymouth a century ago, and his legacy continues to inspire phenomenal creations today.

Prices starts from £10.75 for adults, £8.50 for Child(5-16 years) and £29.00 for Family. If you are looking for Best place for day out with kids and families then this is the perfect destination offering fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories for everyone.

Features

Past Favourites: At Sandworld they're always changing; here's some past favourites.
Game of Thrones: This is one of your favourites! Voted #1 in 2018 and #3 in 2019! Made by Mark and Angelika, this is her very first big project!
Star Wars: Classic big screen films made out of sand! Your favourite sculpture of 2019 season.
Avengers: Everybody knows who they are! Created by Lee in 2018 and then again in 2019 by Karen, the Avengers sculptures are one of yours and ours favourites.
Harry Potter: There was something very magical about our Harry Potter exhibit; we loved encapsulating the sorcery of Hogwarts with sand!
Jurassic: Bringing the T Rex back has to have been one of our favourite projects over the past. You’ll find more photos in our gallery section!
Ancient Greece: We were incredibly proud and pleased with the level of detail on these serpents and lions from a well known Greek myth - a real crowd pleaser.
World Animal: For many of us, going on safari would be a dream come true, but at Sand World we've already had some of the world's largest animals come and visit!
Chitty Bang Bang: The film is now 49 years old but the car has made an appearance at Sand World in recent years. It might be a bit slower in sand though!
Kids Favourites: We don’t see many children that aren’t huge fans of these characters, which is why we had to create this great sculpture for visitors to enjoy!
