North East Connected

Hopping Across The North East From Hub To Hub

FROSTY HALF TERM FUN

Families are invited to join the Ice Sisters and the Happy Snowman for some frosty half term fun this week.

On Wednesday 19 February, Rainton Arena, at Houghton-le-Spring, is hosting Toys Frosty Adventure – a fun-filled interactive show, featuring well-known characters.

And along with an opportunity to meet Sheriff, Cowgirl and Space Ranger, there will be live singing and dancing with the chance to win a prize for the best fancy-dress costume.

The show is the first of a trio of events planned for the recently relaunched venue over the coming weeks.

On 27 March Steve Steinman’s Anything for Love – the Meat Loaf Story will take to the stage with a special guest appearance from Newcastle singer Lorraine Crosby, who duetted with Meat Loaf on the original recording.

Then, on Friday 15 May, Spandau Ballet star Martin Kemp will make a greatly anticipated visit to the Arena for a Back to the 80s Party.

“From the outset we wanted to create a venue that offered entertainment for all ages,” said Rainton Arena’s owner Jay Johal, “and these events are just the start of what promises to be a packed programme.”

Doors open at 4pm for Toys Frosty Adventure and the show starts at 4.30pm and finishes at 6pm.

Under twos can attend free of charge and tickets cost £4 for adults and £9.50 – including a packed tea – for children.
