AUTOBOT leader Optimus Prime will be visiting Chester this half term to transform children's October holidays.

Fans are invited to visit The Entertainer at Chester Boughton for the chance to meet the hero on Saturday, October 29 from 9am to 4pm.

The Transformer will be at the Chester Boughton store for one day only before he whizzes off for more robotic adventures, so visitors are advised to arrive in plenty of time.

The Entertainer’s Optimus Prime meet and greet is completely free of charge and provides families with a fun-filled day out, where they can pose for photos with their hero.
