There is a funfair for the kids as well as the more lively rides for the thrill seekers. Princesses and Superheroes walkabouts, Bubbleologist, Street Ping-Pong, Pop-up silent disco parties are back with James and Dobby. Rizzo the 5-metre walking roaring raptor is popping-in with a few of the younger dinos and they can’t wait to eat, I mean meet you. Boogie Bingo was so much fun last year we had to bring it back. Darren Proctor’s Grown-Up Disco. There is an awesome 360-degree photo booth to capture you and everything around you. Super cool selfie opportunities with pop-up backdrops. Plus, some awesome quirky entertainment lined up while you queue to get in. So, make sure you are down early on all days.
