Victoria Park Tunnel Open Day: SOLD OUT

Update: Please be advised tickets have now sold out.

Should anyone registered not be able to attend we will release tickets back onto the Eventbrite website for other people to secure so please keep checking back to see if any tickets are available.

If you are not able to get tickets prior to the event and would still like to attend we will have a small amount of tickets per hourly time slot available on the day. Unfortunately we will not be able to guarantee you entry to the tunnel; this will be solely dependent on the number of registered people that actually turn up to the event. For Health and Safety reasons we have to restrict the number of people entering the tunnel at any one time.
