Where's Wally 30th celebrations at Rasen Library

Staff member Mel Fenwick was the first to try the Wally selfie booth EMN-170323-133251001

From now until April 22, the library is running a competition for five to 11-year-olds to find out where Wally has visited on his recent travels to London.

There is also a Where’s Wally trail for under fours to see how many Wally’s they can find around the library.

Karen Waring, Market Rasen Library manager, for GLL, said: “We couldn’t let the anniversary pass without celebrating the international character that dresses in the distinctive red-and-white-striped shirt, bobble hat, and glasses.

“The winner of the competition will receive a wonderful anniversary edition of the book that kick-started a global phenomenon 30 years ago and got the whole world asking Where’s Wally?”

The library is also holding a Where’s Wally Easter Eggstravaganza in homage to the character on next Wednesday, April 5.

Make Wally style eggs and chocolate Wally treats.

Take a selfie in the Where’s Wally Photo Booth or try your hand at the Where’s Wally brain teasers.

The event runs from 2pm to 3.15pm and places are strictly limited.

Tickets cost £1 per child.
