About Wriggly Roadshow

We’re a Manchester-based animal handling company with over 10 years of experience – and we love what we do! From birthday parties and kids clubs to schools, events, fetes and care homes, we bring our amazing animals to you for unforgettable encounters.

Our mission? To put smiles on faces, spark curiosity, and create magical moments with creatures from around the world. Meeting animals also helps children build confidence, empathy and positive values – so it’s fun and educational!

We’re fully licensed, insured (up to £10 million), and DBS checked. Safety and welfare for both humans and animals is always our top priority.

Parties

Want a party everyone will remember? Our exotic friends steal the show! Children and adults can meet, hold, and learn about animals they may have only seen in books or at the zoo. Expect laughter, amazement, and plenty of photo opportunities!

Events

Hosting something bigger? We deliver interactive encounters that bring events to life. Whether it’s a festival, fair, or community day, our expert team ensures a smooth, safe and memorable experience.

Fetes

Need a unique attraction? Our workshops delight families with snakes, lizards, hedgehogs, creepy crawlies and more. We also provide all equipment – gazebo, tables, sanitiser – so you don’t have to.

Kids Clubs & Schools

Learning has never been this exciting! Sessions can be tailored to your curriculum, blending education with wow-factor encounters. Children discover fascinating facts about habitats, behaviour and conservation in a fun, age-appropriate way.

Nursing & Care Homes

Exotic animals in care homes? Absolutely! Our therapy sessions bring joy, conversation and uplifting new experiences for residents.

✨ Whether it’s a party, school visit, or event, Wriggly Roadshow promises an experience that’s safe, professional and full of fun.

Friendly and amazing with children!

What a fantastic birthday party we had today. It was amazing, I can not say how amazing the host was with the children, and adults alike. All children loved it and host remained completely calm and friendly as well as informative with a mixed group of children, including lots of very young children. Children loved the variety of animals shown. Thank you so much for making our party. I would highly recommend this wriggle roadshow.
