THE Lanes Shopping Centre is set to host popular children's characters Bluey and Bingo. 

The pair, who feature in the popular Australian animated series 'Bluey', will appear at the Carlisle shopping centre on Wednesday, April 3.

Bluey the Blue Heeler and Bingo the Red Heeler will meet their fans at the East Tower Square, with appearances at intervals between 11 am and 3 pm. 

Ahead of the visit of Bluey and Bingo, The Lanes' centre manager Susan Young expressed her excitement.

She said: "We’re really excited to see our young shoppers having fun with popular characters Bluey and Bingo.

"We like to offer our customers that little bit extra when visiting The Lanes and we know how important it is for families to keep their kids entertained during the school holidays so are always looking to introduce something different to add to our offer."

Parents are also encouraged to bring cameras to capture their child's meeting with Bluey and Bingo.
