IN PICTURES: Families flock to Dinomania event in Whitby to see T-Rex and other dinosaurs

The fun-filled interactive dinosaur show, which lasted an hour-and-a-half, saw little ones and their families check out the mini-museum of real fossils, replicas and fascinating facts.

The stars of the show were the model dinosaurs featuring the T-Rex, raptor, ankylosarus with its swinging club tail, and full-sized triceratops thrilling the young audience – with the host of the event even getting his head stuck in the mouth of one.

Around 400 people attended the two shows at Whitby Leisure Centre.

The organisers said: “It went really well.

"We love new places and enthusiastic crowds and we certainly had that in Whitby.”

One visitor contacted Dinomania to say how much they enjoyed their performance, adding: “Our four-year-old was enthralled by the whole experience.

"Thanks and well done - great job!”
