37 pictures as Lancaster's Dino Fest 2024 is roaring success

Thousands of people young and old flocked to Lancaster city centre at the weekend to enjoy the ever-popular Dino Fest.

The main attraction was the amazingly realistic dinosaurs roaming freely around Lancaster city centre.

The weekend saw a packed programme of dinosaur appearances, fossil handling, talks, shows, dino crafts, Dino Marketplace and so much more.

Dino Fest marks Lancaster’s prehistoric links as the home of Sir Richard Owen – the man who came up with the word ‘dinosaur’.
