The Potion Room laid out for a session: cauldrons and wands on a purple cloth under lit cabinets of potion bottles

Drop-in sessions

An hour at the Potion Room without booking a whole party. Pick a date, book a place per child, and when they are gone they are gone.

  • £12.50 a child
  • 1 hour
  • 8 places a session
  • The Potion Room, Plymouth

How the sessions work

The same benches, cauldrons and take-homes as a private party, sold by the seat instead of by the room. Eight children a session, so nobody is queuing, and the counter on each date shows exactly how many places are left.

Book on the booking page: pick the session, pick a date, say how many children, pay by card, done. Parents stay in the room or sit just outside with a coffee, whichever your child prefers.

Around half term and Christmas the sessions turn seasonal, with the festive and Halloween ingredients on the bench. Those weeks are marked on the dates below and they are the first to fill.

Saturdays

Wizard School sessions

£12.50 a child, one hour, and every child takes home a wish potion they made themselves.

Dates and places left are on the booking page.

Session questions

Do parents stay?

Up to you and them. Stay in the room, or sit just outside with a coffee. Nobody has to leave the building.

Can I book for more than one child?

Yes, up to however many places the session has left. Pick the number when you book and the total updates as you go.

What ages suit the sessions?

The same as the parties: four to eleven. Younger siblings are welcome to watch with you, but a booked place is for a child doing the session.

What if a session is full?

New dates go up a season at a time, so check back, or ring or text Sharon on 07835 501419 and she will tell you what is coming.

Got a date in mind?

Tell us the date, the ages and roughly how many, and we will come back to you the same day with what we can do.
