Family Day Weekend 2023
Dinosaurs are taking over the Square this Family Day Weekend with four days of Jurassic fun!
Snap a pic with four life-sized animatronic dinosaurs. Watch as velociraptors, triceratops, and a 20ft long Baryonyx come to life around the Square. Satisfy your monster appetite at the tasty food truck line-up and peruse the indoor artisan market, in partnership with Food Truck’N Events.
Put on your dancing skates and hit the rink at the daily DJ Skate. Dinosaurs meet 90s nostalgia with movie screenings of The Land Before Time (Saturday and Sunday). Learn more about your favourite dinos at the interactive kids show, Jurassic Live (Monday only).
