Mater, Professor Z and, of course, Lightning McQueen will be on show at the Theme Park on Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th April from 12 noon until 6pm.
Visitors to the free event will be able to enjoy a photo opportunity with the world’s favourite cars.
Jensen Taylor Connelly, Director, M&D’s Scotland’s Theme Park said: “Young or old, everyone loves Cars as their timeless adventures are just great fun. The colourful characters have some iconic one liners and the animation is fantastic. It’s going to be a great Easter family day out.”
Three new rides will also be open for visitors to enjoy as well as the Theme Park’s traditional attractions suitable for thrill seekers and young children. Wristbands are available to purchase online priced at £19.95 and a parent/toddler package is also available for £31.95.
