Prepare for an unforgettable experience as life size animatronic dinosaurs take over Vanderbijlpark during the Jurassic Giant Festival, following successful events in Durban, Pretoria, and Johannesburg in 2023 and 2024.
We are thrilled to introduce this grand educational exhibition to Vanderbijlpark for the very first time. Families and preprimary schools from Vanderbijlpark and surrounding areas are warmly invited to join us for this unique opportunity to step back into the prehistoric era while enjoying a delightful picnic with loved ones.
Recently, Dinosaur World has expanded its outdoor space, growing tenfold with exciting new attractions.
The Jurassic Giants Festival in Vanderbijlpark will showcase two colossal dinosaurs: the awe-inspiring Tyrannosaurus rex (13 meters) and the Austrolotitan (20 meters), along with numerous other dinosaurs and attractions designed for maximum family enjoyment. Spanning over 10,000 square meters, the festival will feature various exhibitors, live DJs, mouthwatering food stalls, and vibrant markets from across Gauteng, creating a lively dinosaur celebration.
The Dino Expo has shifted into high gear, offering a breathtaking Jurassic jungle experience that promises all-day entertainment for the entire family. If you thought you had seen it all, think again—Dino World has truly gone BIGGER, both in scale and excitement!
