Event Activities

You can walk among more than 100 life sized animatronic dinosaurs. Watching them come to life is a thrilling experience for both adults and children. It’s thrilling, but not scary at all.

Every dinosaur was painstakingly reproduced in every detail in collaboration with leading paleontologists. These incredibly realistic dinosaurs are true in size and detail. Some of the dinosaurs have fur while others have scales or feathers.

Each dinosaur has an animatronic metal frame over which layers of foam were placed. Motors located inside the dinosaurs make them move. The dinosaurs can turn their heads, swing their tails and some can walk.

You can experience a one of a kind Raptor Training Experience. You’ll have a chance to meet lovable baby dinosaurs, like the adorable Tyson the T-Rex, Trixie the Triceratops and Cammie the Camarasaurus. And you’ll get to meet their Dinosaur Trainers.

There will be Dinosaur Bounce Houses, Dinosaur Bungee Pull, games and all the inflatables kids can handle. Kids will love the walking Dinosaur Rides and stationary Dinosaur Rides. “Tricera-tots” is a soft play space for the smallest dinosaur lovers.
