Wilson Botanic Park is set to undergo a prehistoric transformation as Dino Safari stomps into town, inviting families to journey back in time to the breathtaking wonders of the Mesozoic era.

The event will span from 28 June to 7 July 2024, with daily sessions between 9.30 am and 4.00 pm. There will also be two special evening events: the Twilight Dino Walk on June 29, and movie night on Saturday 6 July.
Twilight Dino Walk
As darkness descends upon the park, families are invited to embark on a mesmerising journey through a prehistoric wonderland. Highlights of the evening include a twilight walk through ancient landscapes, dino-themed crafts, live music, interactive dinosaur encounters, and the thrilling ‘Floor is Lava’ challenge. Food trucks will also be on hand to satisfy appetites of Jurassic proportions.
Movie night

Guests can cozy up with blankets and picnic baskets while enjoying a screening of Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Lawn games and delicious fare from food trucks will ensure a memorable night for all.
