You and your little ones can take a trip millions of years into the past this summer when giant dinosaurs rock up in Leeds!
A whole host of huge animatronic dinosaurs will be making the city centre their home as part of the Leeds Jurassic Trail, which will run right the way through the school holidays.
A walkabout T-Rex will be wandering around the city centre for much of the summer, and other prehistoric creatures will be based in some of Leeds' best-known landmarks, creating a magical experience for dino-mad kids.
The trail sees the amazing animatronic figures take residence everywhere from the Kirkgate Market to Trinity Kitchen. Just watch out for the raptor!
The Leeds Jurassic Trail launches on the same weekend that classic film Jurassic Park will be screened at Millennium Square with a live orchestra from Opera North on Sunday, July 28.
