About

Dinosaurs are roaming Castleford Market this summer as the Jurassic era returns for a free, interactive prehistoric experience packed with thrills and education in equal measure.


Children can become mini palaeontologists with hands-on fossil dig boxes, enjoy colour-your-own dinosaur pictures to take home, and follow a dino trail to spot even more prehistoric pals. Keep your eyes peeled for regular free appearances from adorable baby dinos and their big brother ‘Spino’, a life-sized animatronic dinosaur starring in timed performances throughout the day.


It’s the perfect chance to learn, play, and snap unforgettable photos as you get up close and personal with your Jurassic favourites. This free family event will spark young imaginations and provide plenty of roarsome fun!
