London, 5 February 2019 - Tickets go on sale today for Ice Age: The Lost Kingdom, a brand-new, prehistoric, outdoor family attraction coming to the UK in 2019. Europe's first touring animatronic Ice Age experience brings to life the sights and sounds of the Ice Age, with 40 majestic beasts that roamed the world some 70,000 years ago. An entertaining, educational and great value day out, where you can step back in time and wander amongst the life-size creatures, including mammoths, sabre-toothed tigers and giant sloths. All animatronic beasts have moving body parts, wide opening jaws and realistic sound effects to really bring the experience to life.
Ice Age: The Lost Kingdom will be touring the UK throughout 2019, beginning in London's Gunnersbury Park on 6th of April and open to the public throughout the Easter school holidays: 6 to 28 April. The tour will go on to visit major city parks in Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Nottingham and Leeds. A variety of street food outlets will be available at all locations, together with a mini-cinema marquee showing an educational Ice Age documentary, a fossil excavation pit for children to unearth skeletons and a merchandise trailer for souvenirs.
