Fun at the Fair

Roll up, Roll up! Meet Fun at the Fair, the lion that brings out Portsmouth’s fun side.

Inspired by holidays in Portsmouth, from visiting the South Parade Pier and its colourful amusements to exploring the lively and buzzing Clarence Pier and Portsmouth’s Historic Dockyard.

Fun at the Fair lion’s stripy mane and swirling patterns weave together to tell a story of Portsmouth. Painted in traditional fairground and seaside colours, this lion captures childhood memories by the sea.
