Welcoming Dino-shores to Freeport Fleetwood!

Event Promotion.

We love working with our client at Freeport Fleetwood – the centre sits on an tranquil marina, which is especially beautiful on a bright, sunny day. This week we decided to disturb the peace all in the name of Halloween with two giant, animatronic Tyrannosaurus Rex. If you can’t scare people on Hallow’s Eve, when can you?

We headed to Freeport on Monday to watch the dinosaur’s be let loose around the centre. BBC Radio Lancashire met us there to discuss all things pre-historic with our Centre Manager, Amanda Elliott, and created some great video content for their own social channels. The dinosaurs were manned by the highly-trained dinosaur experts on hand, who also stopped to chat with the BBC about the work they’ve done with Freeport and with the local schools.

We live streamed the activity on Facebook for the best instant impact. The day was a huge success with families looking for a different alternative to the usual gore and grunge expected for Halloween, and ended with both reptilians being captured and returned at 4:30pm, some great prime time coverage for us, and a happy client.
