On July 4, 2026, a magical treasure trove of objects and artworks is coming to Bewdley in an exhibition that is a must-see for fans of fantasy and Middle-earth…

“In a hole in the ground there lived a Hobbit…”

With those famous words, J.R.R. Tolkien welcomed visitors into Middle-earth, a seemingly living, breathing world both mythical and yet familiar. Regarded as the “father” of modern fantasy literature, Tolkien’s cultural influence has extended far beyond just other authors. Middle-earth has inspired creative minds of all types and acted as a Minecraft-like toolbox for generations of artists, musicians, filmmakers, environmentalists, and game designers.

The Magic of Middle-earth takes visitors on a journey beyond the books to explore that expansive artistic legacy. Discover stunning paintings, incredible sculptures, and even Middle-earth themed Lego sets. With family fun and kids’ activities, this is an exciting exhibition for all ages. Whether you’re a little halfling or a wizened wizard, you won’t want to miss this one!
