Imagine Children’s Festival is at Southbank Centre in London for 11 days this February half-term. From 9-19 February, children can hear some of their favourite authors, join in with performances and explore their creativity in fun workshops.

More than half of the events are free and families can enjoy theatre, literature and music for children up to 12 years old.

Activities range from listening to the popular rhyming stories of Julia Donaldson accompanied by whimsical orchestral music to searching for Moomins on an immersive tour with author and illustrator Tove Jansson.

There is also a screening of The Little Mermaid, with the film ‘powered by bicycles’, and Ready Steady GO!, a musical theatre show for three- to nine-year-olds which allows the audience to create and drive cardboard cars.
