A Night At Your Museum also includes the opportunity to get hands-on with creatures which have inspired countless comic strip characters - including insects, spiders and chameleons.
Other activities include superhero drawing and stop motion animation workshops, story-telling sessions, a chillout zone and messy play sessions for the under fives.
And visitors can also meet real-life local heroes from the police and fire service.
