Blow Your Own Glass

A unique experience for all ages

Experience the magic of shaping glowing glass with help from our professional glassblowers. The activity is suitable for everyone from around age 4 and up, and you’ll receive close guidance throughout. Watch as a glowing mass becomes an Easter egg, a Christmas heart, or a small vase – all blown by you.

A true craftsmanship experience

A memory you created yourself

Glassblowing is a fascinating and sensory experience – you feel the heat from the ovens, watch how color and shape develop, and create something truly unique with your own hands.

The glass must cool for at least an hour and a half after blowing, so we recommend starting your visit with this activity – that way, you'll have time to explore the shops and take a break while you wait.

The item you create is symbolic and not intended for use or sale – it represents your participation, not a finished product.
