Peppa Pig to join annual Teddy Bears Picnic

Teddy Bears Picnic:15OCTOBER2025
Peppa Pig is a special guest at this year’s Teddy Bears Picnic at Manning Park. The ever-popular free event will be held 9.30am-1pm on Wednesday 15 October 2025.

"We invite parents, grandparents and carers to bring along their little ones, aged five and under, together with their favourite teddy,” City of Cockburn Mayor Logan Howlett said.

"This much-loved event is one of the City’s most popular and longest running traditions, and a highlight on our annual event calendar.”

Expect a huge list of tried and tested attractions and entertainment options. Free entertainment will include:
  • Peppa Pig and friends
  • Stage shows and magical performances
  • Roving entertainment throughout the event
  • Sensory play stations, bouncy castles, and interactive zones for little explorers
  • Meet and greets with local heroes and cuddly animals
  • Face painting, pony rides, and creative activities.
A range of carnival rides, games, and food and beverage trucks will be available, or you can bring along a picnic to enjoy. Friends of the Community will be offering Teddy Bears Picnic lunch packs for just $4.50, with all proceeds supporting the charity’s work.

Cockburn Community Toy Swap will return this year in the spirit of reusing toys in good quality condition. Each year in Australia more than 27 million toys end up in landfill. Attendees are encouraged to bring along good quality toys their children no longer play with, to swap with more appealing options, for free.

Parenting and community stalls will be onsite offering information, support, and resources for families.

Like all City of Cockburn events, Teddy Bears Picnic is a waste-wise event and includes free filtered water to refill drink bottles, and reusable and compostable alternatives to single use plastics.
This event is part of the epic Cockburn Live line-up for 2025–2026.
