Venue: Festival Hub (next to Toyland), The Piazza, Princess Alexandra Walk, HD1 2RS

Ticket price: Free (no booking required)

Age guidance: all ages (under 16s should be accompanied by an adult)

Meet Elmer the patchwork elephant at our Hub opening and enjoy colouring activities with free Elmer colouring sheets.

At this family-friendly event you’ll also have the chance to find out about our forthcoming events – and about Indian elephants, their habits and habitats.

Elmer is one of the most iconic children’s book characters, bringing the positive message that everyone has something unique about them and we should all celebrate our differences.

Elmer’s last visit to Huddersfield drew big crowds, so make sure you get there in plenty of time!
