Welcome to Jungle Nights @ The Eden Project

A rare chance to experience the rainforest as night falls at the home of the biggest jungle in captivity. Imagine the jungle at night, the sounds of a thunderstorm approaching, and animals rustling in the undergrowth. Imagine flying through the forest and feasting on a massive hog roast. Imagine uncovering the secrets of the largest rainforest in captivity. The reality is that it is all part of Eden’s Jungle nights.

Treat your Tribe - What's happening

The Zip Wire
Swing into Tarzan action on the most remarkable single span zip wire in the UK; get a bird’s eye view of Eden and the humans down there from 100 feet up. Or get a human’s eye view of the brave humans up there flying above. Not for the faint hearted, but a once in a lifetime opportunity. We’re simply going to have to charge extra for it – but not sky high prices. And all proceeds will go to the Eden Trust’s Jungle Season educational programme. There’s a Canopy Balloon in the Humid Tropics Biome so that you can see life up in the jungle's tree canopy.

Sunset Trail
The whole family – your tribe - should take the Jungle Sunset Trail – a journey of discovery around the Eden site ... and maybe, just maybe win a turn on the zip wire. Immerse yourself in the sounds of the rainforest as night falls, birdsong and animal conversations mingling with the sounds of a tropical thunderstorm rumbling in the distance.

The sounds !
Enjoy all the sounds of the world musicians in the Warm Temperate Biome. Check with Eden for the bands playing each evening at the storytelling heart of the WTB.

The weather!
The world’s largest rainforest in captivity is under cover and the barbecue too. Keep an eye on the weather forecast and take a raincheck before setting out to see us. On a balmy night the place is unbeatable.

Make the most of the day ! During the summer season of Jungle Nights, enjoy a really full day at the Eden Project. Especially if you've not yet been to Eden before buying an Eden Advance ticket from St Austell TIC will be a great help to make the most of your visit. - Don't wait in line to pay, use the Fast-Track entrance instead .

You'll be able to spend the day enjoying the fantastic daytime displays at Eden, enjoy a leisurely lunch at one of the many restaurants and cafes onsite. And then take in the all delights of Eden's special Jungle Nights, including the Hog Roast and Barbecue ! Stay as long as you like. See the fire juggling installation on your way back up from the Biomes. Eden doesn't close until 10pm on Jungle Nights. Truly a day out to remember !!

When....
At 6pm every Monday to Thursday from July 18 to September 1st (except Monday August 1 when Keane will kick off Eden's famous rock concerts - the Eden Sessions. Sorry… they’ve been sold out for weeks.)

And there's more ! Special Offer For the future, the Eden Project has set itself the target of 10% of is visitors arriving by some other form of transport than the motor car. To encourage cyclists, arrive at Eden on a bike and you get a £3.00 reduction off the normal Adult entry at the Fast Track entrance. So, if you're cycling to Eden, don't buy a ticket in advance, just lock your bike in one of the bike racks, go straight to the Fast-Track entrance !

The same offer is open to walkers, although, if you are able to walk to Eden, it helps to have a note from the place that you are staying at near to Eden !

Passport scheme
Having visited Eden for the first time, you can get an Eden Passport for just £3.00. This is valid for 1 year from the date on your entry receipt at the Eden Project.  You'll have a chance to watch how the Project evolves, see how the plantings develop and enjoy the other attractions within Eden during the winter months.  You can bet that there will be a tremendous interest in visiting the Eden Project again during the year!

Our Advance tickets are the same price as when you queue to buy a ticket at Eden.  But, once in the Visitor Centre's Entrance Hall, you'll go through the Advance ticket deskand be able to get in without having to join the queue to pay!

Arrive early
If it's your first visit to Eden, it's probably best to arrive first thing in the morning, generally gates are open at 9.30am with Eden opening at 10.00am so that you can enjoy a really full day at Eden. Winter opening - November to March - last entry is at 3.00pm and Eden closes at 4.30pm. Summer opening - April to October - last entry is 4.30pm, Eden generally closes at 6.00pm but see the information on the 2005 summer season Jungle Nights !

1-year Passport to Eden
During 2003, the average visit duration was 4½ hours! If you arrive later in the day, it's quite likely that you'll be interested in the Passport scheme - you'll be sure to want to return. So, on entry, keep your entry receipt and ask for a Passport application form. You'll be glad that you did !
