Bath Racecourse is to stage a family fun day with a difference this September, as Europe’s largest and most realistic animatronic dinosaurs come to the city on Sunday 15th September.

After being spotted at Doncaster Racecourse in June, the pre-historic giants are coming to Bath Racecourse as part of the track’s annual family fun day.

There will be ‘Ranger Training’ workshops taking place throughout the day, where children will be guided through Jurassic knowledge and what to do in an emergency dinosaur break out situation.

There’ll also be unique dinosaur photo opportunities, a Jurassic craft area, prehistoric face painting and even a giant egg to climb into.

Alongside the Jurassic fun, there’ll be seven races, all offering the chance to experience the thrill of horse racing, plus children will be able to see the horses up-close in the Parade Ring before racing begins.

Jo Hall, Executive Director of Bath Racecourse, said: “We’re really looking forward to this brand-new Dino Family Raceday.

“It’s something a bit different and we think the kids will love meeting the dinosaurs and learning more about them. I know my little girl is super excited!”

Children under 18 get free entry and all the dino-themed entertainment is included in the ticket price.

Early booking Grandstand Enclosure tickets cost £15 at the moment, or you can get a Family Ticket Package for only £33 to include a few extras.

Tickets and more information can be found at: https://www.bath-racecourse.co.uk/whats-on/dinosaur-family-fun-day.
