Stockport Express

Totally stockport

- BY HELEN WHITE

THE Totally Stockport team are working hard with our partners at Merseyway, The Light Cinema and the Makers Market to bring you an amazing weekend of family fun and HUGE entertainm­ent on Saturday June 9.

Starting at 10am, Totally Dinosaur Takeover Day will transform Stockport into one big Jurassic Adventure Park as a herd of prehistori­c reptiles gets ready to take giant steps into the centre of the town for Dinosaur Takeover Day.

For 160 million years, dinosaurs ruled the Earth and now they are back ready to roam around Redrock and Prince’s Street, Merseyway and Mersey Square and St Peter’s ‘Jurassic’ Square.

Over at Redrock, The Light cinema are giving dinosaur themed tote bags away throughout the day – 10 bags every hour from 10am.

Dinosaur Takeover Day is completely free for everyone and includes a Dinosaur Park complete with Jurassic jeep, walkabouts from Tyrannosau­rus Rex, Velocorapt­or and Dino babies. On stage to entertain the crowds with an exciting show will be children’s presenter Andy ‘Dino’ Day and the ever-popular colourful Trolls are back with their unique song and dance display.

The Dinosaur grill will be serving tasty food, to satisfy even dinosaur-sized appetites.

A Dinosaur Day Out wouldn’t be complete without the Flintstone­s: Fred’s incredible stone wheeled ‘foot-mobile’ will be rolling around Mersey Square alongside the easier to navigate and slightly more modern-day rides of the kiddie’s fairground.

Dinosaurs won’t be patrolling the Market Place but you will find the Makers Market where over 50 stalls will be packed with something for everyone: a selection of unique creatives, creators, makers, designers, producers, bakers, musicians and artists.

Plan your Dinosaur Takeover Day out at www. totallysto­ckport.co.uk/ events and the film Jurassic World – Fallen Kingdom is showing at The Light cinema.
