Some of this year's biggest blockbuster characters will come to life this summer as part of a free family event.
Children will have the opportunity to meet beloved movie characters at Glasgow Fort during the school holidays, with appearances inspired by films including Wicked, Jurassic World Rebirth, and Lilo & Stitch.
The meet-and-greet events will run every weekend from July 19 to August 10 and will include appearances by Elphaba and Glinda from Wicked, "the Aloha Alien", and a dinosaur-themed show.

No booking is required, but visitors are advised to arrive early to avoid missing out.
In addition to the meet-and-greet sessions, families can enjoy mini fairground rides, including trampolines, bumper cars, and a carousel.
Discount tokens can be purchased from the pop-up hut near the rides, reducing the cost of all rides (except trampolines) to £2.50.
Standard pricing is £3 per ride and £5 for trampolines.
The event is designed to offer a full day of affordable entertainment for families during the summer break.

Phil Goodman, centre manager at Glasgow Fort, said: "We know it's not always easy keeping the kids entertained during the school holidays, so it's brilliant to bring a bit of free movie magic and summer fun to the centre for families.
"There's something for everyone – from lovable aliens and spellbinding witches to trampolines and a carousel.
"It's a great excuse to pop down for the day, enjoy the fun, and maybe grab a bite to eat while you're here, too."
More information about the upcoming events is available on the Glasgow Fort website.
