Huge list of fun events planned for Easter week at the Whitewater Shopping Centre

A unique week is in store for shoppers at the Whitewater Shopping Centre in Newbridge next week as the shopping haven is set to 'Go Wild'.

A number of events are on to follow on from the excitement of Easter Sunday, and they will be very much jungle and dinosaur themed. It promises to be a fantastic week of events that will guarantee entertainment for kids and parents alike.

The fun begins on the Bank Holiday Monday with face painting & family fun. On Thursday April 5 there will be a Reptile Zoo for kids to enjoy, followed by a Petting Farm on Friday April 6. The weekend of Saturday April 7 and Sunday April 8 brings the spectacular 'Dinosaur Live Show' to Whitewater for the first time ever.

Over the two days locals are invited to join Brad the intrepid explorer on a journey through the Jurassic Era as part of our Free Dinosaur Day Live, mini stage shows. Roaring fun with plenty of interaction, engagement and education. The show opens with Brad teaching children some interesting facts about Dinosaur’s and the Jurassic Era, a geologic period and system that spanned 56 million years. Brad will then bring out on stage two different species of Dinosaur's which some of the children can pet and interact with - Terry the Triceratops & Vinny the Velociraptor Dinosaur!

Trixie the Giant T-Rex, a huge four-metre long interactive automated creature, will provide the perfect grand finale when he makes an appearance at the conclusion of the show.

This will cause great excitement in front of the stage and kiddies and parents can take their photo with him as a memento of the day.
