Children’s favourite Peppa Pig is making a flying visit to Sunderland later this month to say hello to her fans in the city.
The animated star, who currently fronts her own show on channel five, will be out and about in the city centre from 11am on Sunday, January 31, stopping at High Street West (11am and 2.30pm), Market Square (noon and 3.30pm) and Park Lane next to TK Maxx (1.30pm).
Youngsters from across the region will be able to meet the star as she enjoys a rare day away from her friends and family, including best friend Suzy Sheep, with the chance to have their photo taken as a lasting memento.
Peppa’s visit is the first in a long line of events that have been planned for the city centre during 2010 by Sunderland City Council and Sunderland City Centre Management.
Others activities set for the Spring include a Valentine’s competition, with the chance to win a diamond solitaire ring in the Market Square on February 14, a visit by a number of celebrity lookalikes on February 28, a Mothers Day pamper session in Sunniside Gardens on March 14 and a chance to meet a number of furry friends in the Spring Animals Pet Corner at High Street West on March 28.
