Kelburn School of Sorcery - The Dragon Trials
An interactive family adventure at Kelburn Castle. Complete magical trials, meet wizards, and become a Dragon Guardian!
A Magical Adventure Awaits at Kelburn Castle! Step into the enchanted grounds of the Kelburn School of Sorcery and take part in a live, interactive quest to become a true Dragon Guardian.
When a dark wizard threatens the safety of dragons across the seas, students from Kelburn must prove they are ready. But before they can be trusted to protect these legendary creatures, they must pass The Dragon Trials — a series of magical tests demanding wisdom, creativity, courage, and focus.

professors
