Ray will be visiting selected The Entertainer stores on the dates below appearing regularly between 10am-4pm.
There’s no need to pre-book a ticket. Simply turn up on the day – and come prepared to snap a few selfies with TV’s newest star. Ray’s no diva, but he is a pretty big deal you know.
Don’t forget, Ray is available to purchase from all of our stores (whether your local store is lucky enough to have a Ray visit or not). If you purchase a Ray soft toy from one of our stores, we’ll also give you some exclusive Ray-themed merchandise for free whilst stocks last. We're nice like that.
