Codman's Punch & Judy Llandudno

Codman's Punch & Judy Llandudno Est. 1860, Britain's oldest running TRADITIONAL Punch & Judy Show. That’s the way to do it! That's the way to do it!!

Richard Codman, a travelling showman was stranded in Llandudno in 1860 when his horse died. He collected driftwood from the beach and hand carved the Punch & Judy puppets, the very same puppets you still see today. From 1860 to 1863 the show performed within the town of Llandudno but in 1864 gained approval from Lord Mostyn to perform on Llandudno promenade and has done almost every summer season

for over 160 years. The show is now in the care of the 5th generation of the Codman family. Codman's Punch & Judy is a TRADITIONAL Victorian style show including the old historical characters. Codman's Punch & Judy is not funded and only continues through audience's donations, why not come along, enjoy the show, try the photo booth and maybe buy a souvenir.

Llandudno’s notorious mobile reception often inhibits taking card donations, would appreciate you have some cash as a back up.
That’s the way to do it! Thank you x
