THE QUEEN’S PLATINUM JUBILEE BEACON TRAIL
CLAPHAM JUNCTION
Thursday 26th May 2022 - Sunday 12th June 2022
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Beacon Trail is a free, augmented reality trail – a fantastic day out for families. Explore Clapham Junction with the help of your augmented reality guide, Sir Barnaby Beacon, as he visits seven memorable and magical friends – like Charlie Crown or Theadora Throne – who have come to life from Buckingham Palace and have ventured out on a day trip.
Clapham Junction will be one of at least 100 communities across the UK to run this free story-trail as we celebrate Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and historic 70 years of service. On this innovative experience, families choose what happens on the story-trail using a smartphone to discover cute characters along the route where they will see them burst to life in augmented reality – once players open the AR they can take selfies or even record movies with the characters!
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Beacon Trail is located at seven story-points around Clapham Junction, ready for families to explore with the help of their augmented reality guide, Sir Barnaby Beacon. It takes about forty-five minutes to complete (but can be completed in more than one visit), is completely contactless – thanks to its cutting edge QR code, web-based platform – so anyone with a smartphone can take part. To play, families simply scan a poster or any trail character with their smartphone. There is no need to download any apps or register. It’s absolutely free and families who take part will win a free, digital fun pack at the end!
