Live Owls at MAC

Free, drop-in | Outdoor Terrace

Come down to MAC and meet a variety of beautiful live owls as we celebrate our Birdland Family Trail and our upcoming Christmas show, The Owl Who Came for Christmas (Mon 1 – Sun 28 Dec).

In partnership with Shropshire Falconry.

The Owl Who Came for Christmas tells the heartwarming tale of Rosie the Owl and her festive feathered adventures, as she wakes up one day to find herself nestled in a family's new Christmas tree. With toe-tapping songs, captivating puppetry, and plenty of opportunities for audience participation, this delightful show promises to captivate audiences of all ages.

FOR ONE DAY ONLY, come and meet Rosie and her feathery friends up close as they visit MAC’s Terrace with Steve Cross of Shropshire Falconry. Meet a variety of magnificent owls and learn all about them, including:

• The Barn Owl
• The Western Screech Owl
• The White-Faced Scops Owl

Look out for our Christmas show special offer on the day!
