An ele-fantastic public art event that Leicester will never forget!
Following the stratospheric success of the Rocket Round Leicester trail in 2021, LOROS will be teaming up with Wild in Art again to present an incredible new public sculpture trail that’s going to leave a big impression.
For 10 weeks this summer, frm 14th July until 21st September 2025, a unique herd of Elephants will be stampeding into Leicester for a mammoth art trail parading through its streets, parks and open spaces.
40 beautifully designed Elephant sculptures will Stomp Round Leicester in recognition of LOROS’ 40th anniversary, taking trail-goers on a journey of discovery past the city’s well-known icons and hidden gems.
Every giant Elephant on the trail will be designed by talented artists from the local area and further afield and sponsored by a business. Also roaming across the city will be mini-herds of Baby Elephant sculptures, adopted and decorated by schools and community groups as part of our exciting Learning Programme.

Farewell Event
There will be a chance to say a final ‘goodbye’ at a Farewell Event on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th October at LOROS Hospice before each giant Elephant sculpture is auctioned at the end of the trail to raise much-needed funds for LOROS. Each Baby Elephant will return to its forever home with their schools and community groups.
This ele-fantastic event is set to be something the city of Leicester will never forget. We hope you’ll join the herd for our jumbo journey and Stomp Round Leicester with us this summer!
