Guests can get up close and personal with true-to-detail and true-to-size dinosaurs including a 60-foot long, sky-scraping Spinosaurus, an 80-foot long Apatosaurus and a lifesize Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The exhibit also features a one-of-a-kind interactive baby dinosaur show and raptor training event. You can also attend the meet-and-greet for some lovable baby dinosaurs like Tyson the T. Rex, Cammie the Camarsaurus and Trixie the Triceratops.
Jurassic Quest said there will be walking dinosaur rides and stationary rides throughout the Von Braun Center.
If you’re looking for a little more adventure you can take on The Quest. This is an interactive challenge that leads adventurers through 10 clues within the experience. If you finish all the activities, you could earn a reward.
