The star of CBBC programme Live ‘n’ Deadly Naomi Wilkinson will be hosting a series of Deadly-themed live shows at Longleat Safari and Adventure Park this summer.

Naomi, who also presents CBBC’s Wild and Naomi’s Nightmares of Nature, will treat visitors to some close encounters with a selection of Longleat’s deadliest animals during her Deadly Summer Show.

The shows will take place four times daily from August 7-18 in Longleat’s outdoor Hunters of the Sky Arena and will include a number of birds of prey.

Animal guests joining Naomi and the birds in the arena will include giant boa constrictors, skunks and a number of other creatures with deadly reputations.

“I’m really looking forward to being down at Longleat over the summer to introduce some of the world’s deadliest animals to the visitors at the park,” said Naomi.

“The shows are 100% live so you can never be totally sure what to expect, but that’s what makes working with animals so exciting.

“Hopefully the audiences in the arena will have as much fun watching from the safety of the stands as I do getting up close and personal with these incredible creatures.”

Naomi will be joined in the arena by Longleat’s renowned experts from the Hunters of the Sky team who help her to tame some of the deadliest aerial predators in the world.

Entry to the shows is included with a valid Longleat day ticket or annual pass but places for each performance will be limited and therefore allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.

The Deadly Summer Show is part of Deadly Adventure at Longleat, a four year partnership with BBC Worldwide, which transforms areas of the park in the style of the BBC’s Deadly shows.
