A spokesman said: "They’ll love coming face-to-face with the cute animals in the petting farm, scaling the climbing wall and racing on the electric go-karts. And if that wasn’t fun enough, there’ll also be able to enjoy the Umbanda drumming workshop, face painting, giant games, ball pit and many more activities.
"In addition, acclaimed children’s entertainer Colonel Custard will be astounding kids and adults alike with his breathtaking circus skills. He’ll also be revealing and teaching a few of his tricks too."
Food and drink will be on offer too with stalls selling everything from ice cream, milkshakes, slushies, coffee, pizza, hot dogs and homemade cakes.

Entry is free and includes some activities, while others cost between £1 and £3. Some activities need tokens, which can be bought on the day from the designated token booths.
