Dinosaurs have made their way to Dunedin…
Come face-to-face with prehistoric giants and discover how they lived, thrived, and survived. There's something for every young explorer in this exciting exhibition.
To celebrate the opening weekend, we're putting on a weekend of dino-mite activities for the whole family!
