Space Invasion
Following the huge success of Space Invasion last year, this free, family event returns to Lichfield for a whole weekend! (12th and 13th September).
Stand by for action, as we welcome a host of costumed characters from the worlds of film and TV sci-fi. Lookout for these well-known characters on the streets of Lichfield, and in and around The Hub.
The good, the bad and the ugly from every corner of the galaxy may be dropping in at various times over the weekend. Who will you meet…? An Imperial Stormtrooper? The evil Darth Vader? or even the dreaded Daleks…?! Be sure to lookout for K9 and the Ghostbusters car as well… It’s out of this world!!
Why not join in the fun by dressing up yourself? It doesn’t matter who or what you come as – just let your imagination run wild! Your best fancy dress, or your favourite film or TV character – anything goes! Just make sure to pop into The Hub where there’ll be a small treat for all children in costume.
As part of this special event, we will be fundraising not only for The Hub’s community work, but we will also be collecting for Elaine’s Toy & Gift Appeal – so look out for our collectors walking around with the Stormtroopers!
