Pride of Portsmouth Lion Trail — 13th July to 13th September

This summer, 45 uniquely designed lion sculptures have been placed across Portsmouth as part of the city’s 100-year celebrations, each one created by a local artist and inspired by the people, places, and stories of the city. One of them calls Port Solent home.

Port Solent is the home of The Blue Guardian, created by south coast artist Kizzi B Creative. Find it near Pavers, then use the free trail map or app to discover all 45 lions across the city, track down the roaming unicorn, and unlock rewards along the way.

While you are here, enter The Blue Guardian code on the app and head to the app’s Rewards tab for the chance to win a family day out at Port Solent, including a £60 restaurant voucher and £40 Odeon Cinema gift card.

The trail is completely free, open to all ages, and runs until 13th September. With waterfront restaurants, bars and shops all on site, Port Solent is a great place to start your adventure.
