Watch out! The dinosaurs are coming to town centre
STOCKPORT town centre is turning totally Jurassic this Saturday when a Jurassic adventure - Dinosaur Takeover Day - hits Stockport.
Working with our partners at Merseyway, The Light cinema and the Makers Market, a herd of prehistoric reptiles are getting ready to take giant steps across the town for Dinosaur Takeover Day on Saturday, June 9.
For 160 million years, dinosaurs ruled the Earth and now they are back ready to strut their huge stubby toes around Redrock and Prince’s Street, Merseyway and Mersey Square and St Peter’s ‘Jurassic’ Square.
Over at Redrock, The Light cinema is giving dinosaur themed tote bags away throughout the day - 10 bags every hour from 10am!
Packed full of fun and entertainment for all the family, Dinosaur Takeover Day is completely *free for everyone and includes a Dinosaur Park compete with Jurassic jeep, walkabouts from Tyrannosaurus Rex, Velociraptor and Dino babies. On stage to entertain the crowds with an exciting show will be children’s presenter Andy Day and the ever-popular 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 ‘footmobile’ will be rolling around Mersey Square alongside the easier to navigate, and slightly more modernday, rides of the kiddie’s fairground.
Dinosaurs won’t be patrolling the Market Place but you will find the Makers Market where more than 50 stalls will be packed with something for everyone: a selection of unique creatives, creators, makers, designers, producers, bakers, musicians and artists.
