Kynren has started work one on of the flagship experiences in Kynren – The Storied Lands, a new historical theme park opening in the UK next summer.
Kynren – The Storied Lands will be a daytime attraction within the wider Kynren park in Bishop Auckland, County Durham.
Construction for the first phase of the project was approved last month.
The initial phase of the park will offer five major shows and immersive experiences, including The Lost Feather.
The Lost Feather is a bird show focusing on conservation to be performed on a stage inspired by a giant bird’s nest.
Work is now underway to create the 3,600-seat arena for The Lost Feather, which will feature free-flight displays, emotional storytelling, and endangered species.
Anna Warnecke, Kynren’s CEO, said: “Approval of the plans for The Lost Feather is another momentous step forward for Kynren – The Storied Lands.

“Every aspect of the entire park has been carefully thought through and designed, building on the expertise gained from delivering Kynren’s night shows, and we’re all incredibly pleased we can continue to progress our exciting ideas to produce an epic park that will help boost the local economy and community.”
The Lost Feather is being created under the guidance of two leading figures in avian care, training, and conservation – Jimmy Robinson, curator of birds and conservation at Kynren; and Andy Hallsworth, assistant curator of birds and training at Kynren.
“The Lost Feather embodies everything Kynren – The Storied Lands stands for: world-class entertainment with purpose,” said Warnecke.
“This show will immerse audiences in the beauty, fragility, and wonder of birds, while also inspiring meaningful action for conservation.”
Robinson said: “Birds have shaped our myths, our ecosystems, and our futures.
“At Kynren, we’re giving them a platform not only to amaze people, but to move them – to make them care. The Lost Feather is more than a show; it’s a powerful way to connect people with the natural world and inspire them to protect it.”
