Big Wild Weekend

19-21 June 2020

This Big Wild Weekend, join The Wildlife Trusts in celebrating nature!

Each year during 30 Days Wild, the Big Wild Weekend sees Wildlife Trusts across the country holding special events to bring people closer to the natural world. As things are a little different this year and these events can't go ahead as normal, join us online for a weekend of music, fun and quizzing! Make sure to follow the links below for more details on each day.

Friday 19 June

An evening of music

Hosted by actor & Radio 1 DJ Cel Spellman wth special guests such as Jack Savoretti and Katie Melua. Join us over on our YouTube channel at 7pm for this event.

Saturday 20 June

Summer solstice camp-out

Set up your tent in the back garden or build your best den in the living room. Tonight, we're sleeping under the stars! Win special prizes such as a family tent from Cotswold Outdoor, child-friendly binoculars from Learning Resources, or a breakfast hamper from Jordans Cereals when you enter our prize draw.

Sunday 21 June

Big Wild Quiz

Hosted at 7pm on our Facebook page by Sophie Pavelle and David Oakes with special appearances from the likes of Liz Bonnin. Grab your pens and paper for four rounds of fun questions: nature, movies/books/TV, music, and a photo round.
