Dinosaur Week at Flambards | May Half Term
It's Dinosaur Week at Flambards, Helston, this May Half Term. From 28 May – 5 June journey into the Jurassic for a day full of family fun.
Explore a prehistoric-themed landscape, home to more than a dozen different dinosaurs ranging from a metre-long baby stegosaurus to giant triceratops. You will also be able to spot giant dinosaur eggs, baby dinosaurs and even a nest of pteranodon hatchlings. The special hatchery has a host of baby dinos, emerging from their eggs and look out for a group of troublesome baby velociraptors on the hunt for prey.
Try your hand at fossil hunting in the Dino Dig where you can uncover fossilised remains including the remains of a young tyrannosaurus rex.
Meet some live creatures with links to our prehistoric ancestors from reptiles to raptors on 29 May and 2 June with Flambards Creepy Crawly Wild Animal Show.
Perfect for thrill-seekers, all the rides and exhibitions will be open throughout the May Half Term week. Take a spin on the SkySwinger, check out the amazing views from the top of SkyRaker - the drop, twisting rider, brave the Thunderbolt or dare you journey on the dark ride - Space Race and prepare to get wet on the Colorado log flume!
Traditional family fun is guaranteed on the Carousel and Teacup rides as well as the Cornwall Eye and Balloon Race.
There's loads of undercover soft play for little ones, plus outdoor adventure play, a hands on science zone with laser maze, disorientation tunnel and more to fascinate and plenty of cool stuff for kids in Ferdi's Funland.
Enjoy a free 7 day return for more family fun throughout the half term with each full priced ticket.
