The team behind the popular Jurassic Kingdom, which took over Glasgow's Botanic Gardens, are going back in time once again for their latest event.

Europe’s first ever animatronic Ice Age experience “Ice Age: The Lost Kingdom” will be coming to Rouken Glen Park for three weeks this summer.

The interactive event will feature over 40 prehistoric animals – from woolly mammoths to dire wolves - between June 22 and July 14.

Families will be transported back 70,000 years as they wander through the park and experience the sights and sounds of the Ice Age.

Palaeontologists in the making will able to get hands-on with an Ice Age excavation pit and a mini-cinema on the grounds will screen fascinating documentaries for kids.

A virtual reality experience will also be present to immerse families in the prehistoric land, making it a summer day out not to be missed.

Naz Kabir, Global Event Producer and Marketing Director at Weli Cultural Alliance, said: “After the outstanding success of Glasgow’s Jurassic Kingdom in 2017, we couldn’t wait to return to the city. We wanted to develop a new concept using the expertise of our creative team, and so Ice Age: The Lost Kingdom was born.

"It really pushes the boundaries of our technology, with 40 animatronic creatures all with moving body parts, wide opening jaws, and roaring sound effects that help transport you back to the prehistoric times.
