Superhero Adventure Trail

Superheroes needed for a special summer holiday mission!

Enter mission control at the Corn Exchange where you will transform into your superhero character before heading out on an immersive adventure around the town centre. Following a map and using your magic goggles to help you navigate, you will meander to different locations looking for clues and puzzles to complete as part of your quest.

Discover Newbury's hidden corners, search for rarely seen native wildlife and above all else, work together as a team to complete the mission.

The Superhero Adventure Trail is a new outdoor commission created by A Line Art and produced by Corn Exchange Newbury.
