Southwold Maize Maze

A day of outdoor fun and adventure for the whole family, with two mazes to explore, and loads of activities in our play park!

Navigate your way through the towering maize crop to find the stamp points, encountering twists, turns, dead ends, and surprises along the way. Enjoy a whole day of fun with our pedal go-karts, three jumping pillows, fast double zip line (7-18 only), ride-on tractors (U7 only), nest swing, climbing towers, slides, giant sandpits, sand play café and kitchen, and water play challenge, the Downpour Derby!

Fields of the Future is the 2026 theme for the Southwold Maize Maze, celebrating the exciting ways modern farming is changing to adapt to modern technology and protect the planet. This year’s maze turns the countryside into a hands-on adventure, where families can explore how technology, sustainability and clever new ideas are helping farmers grow food in smarter, greener ways.

Across the maze, discover interactive boards on soil health, pollinators, water conservation, farm tech and more. With child-friendly challenges and a stamp trail woven through the pathways, Fields of the Future brings tomorrow’s farming to life in a way that’s playful, positive and fun.

This year, there's three maze designs for visitors to explore. The mini maize, designed especially for younger children, is a sunflower design, with a different coloured finger stamp to collect on each petal. ??

The big maze this year has two parts; a pig design, taking inspiration from the local landscape and exploring the role that livestock plays in agriculture and soil health, and a tractor design, representing the advancements in technology, crop health, weather and water management. ?? ??

If you manage to reach the middle, climb the raised walkway and take in the beautiful views of Reydon marshes and the River Blyth.

There's a fabulous cafe on site too, serving delicious meals, salads, sandwiches and drinks, plus the Snack Shack and Pizza Parlour, and a delicious local ice cream trailer.
