The Dinosaurs in the Park event has opened for the summer
Dozens of life-sized dinosaurs have arrived at Heaton Park for an event running over the school holidays.
Families can see classic favourites such as the Stegosaurus, Triceratops and Velociraptor, as well as the lesser-known Dilophosaurus, Kentrosaurus and Hypacrosaurus.As well as being able to wind your way along the Dinosaur Trail, there are puzzles to solve, and you can even carry out some Jurassic dentistry by brushing the teeth of the resident T-Rex.
And guests can design their own dinosaur and watch it come to life on the screen and visit the palaeontologist tent to 'discover fossils, dinosaur dung and interesting facts'. And on two of the days, July 23 and August 5, there'll be a special appearance from a real-life palaeontologist, Manchester University’s Dr Dean Lomax.
