Free face painting will be on offer featuring the skills of Yorkshire-based Donna’s Face Painting from 10am to 4pm both days – and it’s just 50p parking all day on the Sunday.

The event is completely free, but visitors are encouraged to donate what cash they can to Forget Me Not children’s hospice via the purple collection buckets located around the exhibits and with walkabout characters.

Lynette Howgate, Trinity Walk’s Centre Manager, said: “This event just gets bigger and bigger. Best of all it’s free while helping support an amazing local charity in Forget Me Not children’s hospice.

“The look on kids’ faces when they meet the characters is priceless and there’s plenty of adults come to the even too, such is the quality of the cosplayers and cars.”
