Free entry for badge holders

King Richard III Visitor Centre is one of over 200 attractions around the UK that Blue Peter badge holders can get into for free.

To gain free entry, each child must have a Blue Peter badge, a valid Blue Peter badge ID card and be accompanied by a full paying or concessionary adult. If a paying adult is accompanied by two children with badges and valid badge cards, free entry will be given for both children.

If a disabled badge holder is accompanied by a registered carer, both can gain free entry. Carers must bring supporting documents.

If attending in as part of a group, free entry will be provided to the badge holder to visit the exhibition only. Badge holders must make themselves known to the ticket office before the transaction is processed as refunds cannot be given.

Before you visit any of the attractions, grab a grown-up and read the Blue Peter Badge Attractions Terms and Conditions.
