With the February half term just around the corner it can sometimes be tricky to think of things to do to keep the littles ones entertained for a whole week, let alone find an activity that doesn’t cost the earth. Victorian Arcade in Walsall has a great solution though - bring the gang along to meet the famous Lightning McQueen from the popular children’s film Cars.

Lightning McQueen will be situated outside the entrance to Victorian Arcade on Saturday 24th February. Free for everyone to meet, the superstar replica car will be in situ from 11am to 4pm, and local families are encouraged to come and say hi and grab some photos with the ‘racing legend’.

Anyone that takes a photo and then uploads it to Victorian Arcade’s Facebook page will also be entered into a competition to win a whole hamper of Cars film related goodies*.

Darren Griffiths, Senior Regional Facilities Manager of Savills for Victorian Arcade, commented: “We are thrilled to be welcoming the Lightning McQueen replica to the Arcade to meet with our loyal shoppers and local families. I am looking forward to seeing all the photos that are taken on the day - good luck to all who enter our competition too!”
