THERE'S a fantastic weekend of family fun and entertainment lined up at the Essex Indoor Family Festival at the Brentwood Centre tomorrow and Saturday.
Expect a jam-packed weekend of celebrities, music, attractions, shopping, farm animals, interactive magic, storytelling, face painting and much more over both days.
The stage will feature performances throughout each day (see timetable right) but there'll be plenty of other things to do too, including:
Visit the Warescott Farm mobile petting farm where you can meet the farm animals;
Have your picture taken with characters from Star Wars and Dr Who as well as the Trotters' Reliant Robin from Only Fools and Horses and the Starsky and Hutch car too;
Bouncy castles, inflatables, face painting and a soft play area for the little ones.
And don't forget there's shopping and information stands too.
The great news is that it's all happening indoors and all the attractions are included in the ticket price.
Discounted advance tickets are available on the website or tickets can be purchased on the door.
"We wanted to create a great family day out at a reasonable, all-inclusive price and hopefully we have achieved that. " said Gary Sheridan of event organisers GNB Media.
"There has certainly been a big buzz about it in the weeks leading up to the event."
