Visitors to M&D's Scotland's Theme Park are in for a roaring time this summer as the family favourite destination is to host free daily dinosaur shows!

How To Train Your Velociraptor

About How To Train Your Velociraptor

Featuring life-like dinosaurs including the star of the show, a Velociraptor along with its adorable babies, the free shows will run daily from Saturday 28 June and run until Sunday 10th August.

The ‘How to Train Your Velociraptor’ show will take place daily at 12.30pm, 3.30pm and 5pm with special appearances also throughout the day.

Visitors can also join the Ranger Academy, an interactive adventure where families work together on tracking, observation and safety missions.

At 2pm there will be Ranger Training where participants can learn what it takes to survive amongst the dinos.

Jensen Taylor Connelly said: “Summer is all about great days out and we have action packed activities for all the family. As well as our free dinosaur shows, we have lots to keep visitors, no matter their age, entertained from our crazy outdoor golf to our indoor bowling, as well as lots of new food outlets.”

The dinosaur activities are free. On selected dates, 6th, 13th, 20th and 27th July and the 3rd August, there will also be a special Breakfast with the Dinosaurs event at Krazy Congo Soft Play, priced at £15.95 plus booking fee.

Wristbands for access to the Theme Park rides can also be purchased at scotlandsthemepark.com

To make it easier for Lanarkshire residents, the popular local attraction has also arranged for a local bus service to run for the summer duration. The 247 First Bus Service will pick up and drop off at various points including Hamilton Bus Station, Motherwell and Bellshill. Time-table details are available at scotlandsthemepark.com/247-first-bus.
