We continue to monitor the situation regarding the outbreak of Covid-19 coronavirus and regularly review advice from Public Health England. Cadbury World is currently operating as normal and standard terms and conditions on ticket purchases continue to apply. The health and safety of our guests and employees is our number one priority and with this in mind, we have made a number of changes to how we operate Cadury World. Please see here for more information.
 

If you live in or have visited an area that has been directly affected by Covid-19 coronavirus AND have symptoms known to be associated with the virus e.g. fever, cough, breathlessness , we ask politely that you delay your visit to Cadbury World and contact NHS111 (or if overseas, your local health authority) for further advice and instruction. If this applies to you and you have already booked tickets, please contact the Cadbury World reservations team on 0121 393 6004 for further advice regarding your booking.

It is essential to prebook to guarantee your tickets.

Your e-ticket will be emailed to you and can be scanned on arrival directly from your phone or from a print out.

The average walk around the exhibition tour itself lasts about 1 hour 30 minutes, not including the Bournville Experience museum and the 4D Chocolate Adventure, for which you should allow roughly 1 hour 30 minutes.
