Why Dino’s?

The St John’s Centre are supporting these free Drop in Dino Day’s as part of this Summer’s big Roarsome Jurassic Trail activities. Read more

Full-size dinosaurs are coming to life all over Leeds this summer and the whole family can have a monster day out hunting them down! If you are in search of things to do this summer, there are five to find around the city – all you need to do is follow the Jurassic Trail to track them down. You can start at any point and it’s an easy walk, so young and old alike can join in. Along the way you may even see one of our roaming dinosaurs – but don’t worry, they don’t bite!

This fantastic free event is part of our ambition to make Leeds a truly child friendly city – a place where children are valued, supported, enjoy their life and can look forward to a bright future. Brought to you by LeedsBID, the Jurassic Trail starts from Saturday 27th July until Sunday 1st September. The trail will take you through Victoria Leeds, Leeds Kirkgate Market, The Merrion Centre and Trinity Leeds, making it perfect for dino spotting whatever the weather.
