Kids will love meeting the walking Triceratops, Stegosaurus, and the mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex, plus a host of adorable baby dinosaurs to touch and pat.
The event is designed especially for children aged nine years and younger, making it a perfect outing for families looking to spark curiosity and excitement about dinosaurs. In-character rangers add to the immersive experience, guiding visitors through a unique dinosaur encounter.
DinoFest features a 45-minute Dinosaur Encounter and a brand-new Dino Trail showcasing a towering Brachiosaurus. Educational activities include a Dino Dig, themed arts and crafts, and a 'feel a fossil' station with real dinosaur bones. These hands-on experiences are crafted to engage young minds and encourage learning through play.
