Launched as part of Paddington Visits, a trail of Paddington Bear statues across the UK to celebrate the forthcoming release of PADDINGTON IN PERU, arriving in cinemas on November 8th, Paddington took a seat on a bench in the Town Centre and was immediately embraced by the local community.
 
With passers by stopping for selfies, Penrith is one of only 23 locations taking part in Paddington Visits, a trail which will see the special statues appearing in cities, towns, and beauty spots over the UK.
 
Everyone in Penrith buzzed with excitement as they gathered to welcome the Town Centre’s newest neighbour: a meticulously crafted and painted statue sporting the wise bear’s signature red hat, blue duffle coat, and, naturally, a marmalade sandwich in paw.
Elizabeth Jane Hasell-McCosh, the founder of the Dalemain World Marmalade Awards and Festival, which will be held in April 2025, introduced Paddington to the town.
