The dinosaurs are coming to Royston Town Centre on Saturday 27th June!
The interactive walkabout experience, organised by Royston First, will take place throughout the morning of Saturday 27th June, from 10.30am – 1pm on Royston Market.
Expect to see a mix of baby and large dinosaurs roaming around the Market Square along with the rangers, for meet-and-greets, fun interactions, and photo opportunities. Bring along your friends, family and cameras!
The appearances are designed to feel immersive and interactive, with the dinosaurs moving around the event area rather than staying in one fixed location, giving you plenty of opportunity to see them.
Programme of Events:
• 10:30am – Large Walking Dinosaur Appearance (20 mins)
• 11:05am – Baby Dinosaur Meet & Greet (20 mins)
• 11:45am – Large Walking Dinosaur Appearance (20 mins)
• 12:20pm – Baby Dinosaur Meet & Greet (20 mins)
Whilst you’re in Royston Town Centre, please shop locally and enjoy the market, local independent retailers and a wide variety of eateries.
