Find the Flock: Shaun the Sheep Trail
Ewe got this!
This spring, Shaun the Sheep is heading to Bury town centre with a baaa-rilliant FREE, family-friendly sculpture trail – and you’re invited to Find the Flock.
From Saturday 28 February to Thursday 30 April, discover 12 Shaun the Sheep sculptures hiding across venues in the town centre. Each Shaun has been uniquely designed, giving you plenty of reasons to explore, take photos and enjoy a day out in Bury.
About the Trail
Delivered in collaboration with BAFTA® award-winning production studio Aardman, the Find the Flock sculpture trail is created by Wild in Art, a leading producer of spectacular public art events who have animated cities and destinations across the world, from Auckland to Cape Town.
The trail brings one of Aardman’s most loved characters – and star of film and television – to Bury, in collaboration with Bury BID / Discover Bury.
Find the Flock
Follow the trail around Bury and see if you can spot all 12 sheep along the way. The sculptures will be hosted inside a variety of town centre venues, encouraging visitors to explore different parts of Bury as they go.
Each brightly decorated Shaun has been designed by a national or international artist. Visit the sculptures to find out more about the artists behind the designs – and enjoy a sheep joke or two along the way!
