The world-famous trail has begun!
Last updated 30th Jun 2025
Giant figurines of some of Aardman's most loved characters have popped up around Bristol for the third instalment of Gromit Unleashed.
This year sees 53 sculptures of Wallace, Gromit and Feathers McGraw dotted across the city and beyond with locations including Temple Meads Station, the M Shed, and Cheddar Gorge.
The statues take inspiration from the world of film with design collaborators such as Dreamworks, Richard Curtis and Sir Paul McCartney.
"So many other artists have got involved and it's humbling for me," said Nick Park, the creator of Wallace and Gromit.
"My characters are a blank canvas for all of these amazing designers to just have a field day.
"To be established like this, with statues around Bristol is pretty special, I have to pinch myself," he added.
The trail will continue to the end of August before the sculptures get sold at auction to raise money for the Bristol Children's Hospital.
"We love seeing the excitement of all the children and parents going around from sculpture to sculpture with their maps," said Nicola Masters, director of the Grand Appeal.
"We know it brings people in from across the UK and oversees - the only place we haven't had a visitor from is Antarctica. Maybe this is the year!"
