Bognor Regis Puppet Party 2025

Join us for another fun packed Bognor Regis Puppet Party on September 27th and 28th.

A whole host of puppet shows, and street entertainers will take over the seafront once again sponsored by Bognor Regis Town Council.

Building on the success of last year’s event the Bognor Regis Puppet Party 2025 will feature Punch and Judy, marionettes, clowns, magicians and musicians.

Based at the Royal Norfolk Hotel, the free event will star Mr Punch and his world-famous sausage stealing antics in some of the funniest Punch and Judy Shows in the country, presented by members of The Punch and Judy Club.

Members of the Punch and Judy Club are some of the country’s finest family entertainers, having performed tens of thousands of shows across all manner of venues, as well as for television and film, and most recently for King Charles on his visit to Punch’s British birthplace, Covent Garden.

Mr Punch is Britain’s national puppet, he has been entertaining families for over 360 years. The character Pulcinella came from the Italian commedia dell’arte shows, and first appeared in England as a marionette, spotted in Covent Garden by Samuel Pepys in 1662. Since then, he has found a home at the seaside and become an icon of Great Britain.

Other entertainers performing at the festival include Bognor favourite James Arnott’s Puppets on Parade.
