If you haven’t heard about Jurassic World: The Exhibition in Melbourne, then you must have been living under a prehistoric rock. The latest Jurassic exhibition to come to Brunswick is bigger and better than its predecessor, Dinos Alive. We were lucky enough to see the herds of dinosaurs up close and personal at the Jurassic World Exhibition in Melbourne, so if you’ve been considering heading along, here is our complete review.
What is Jurassic World: The Exhibition?
Jurassic World: The Exhibition is a unique and wonderfully crafted dinosaur experience set amongst the world of the now popular animated series Jurassic World: Camp Crustaceous. The experience begins on the “ferry” across to the island and immerses you in a world of prehistoric wonder from the get go.
Once inside Jurassic World: The Exhibition you get the opportunity to experience so many amazing interactive displays. As you enter, you’re greeted by one of Jurassic World: The Exhibitions largest dinosaurs, the Brontosaurus before encountering a rather animated Pachycephalosaurus in the back of his transport. These first encounters really set the tone of what to expect in at the Jurassic World Exhibition in Brunswick. Following on from these incredible encounters you have the chance to see dino eggs in their incubators and meet very friendly baby dinosaurs, with a parasaurolophus waiting to meet keen onlookers.
Fans of the show, both young and old will love the chance to meet a baby bumpy, the ankylosaurus famous for protecting the kids of camp cretaceous. Jurassic World: The Exhibition is a truly incredible day out for families and dinosaur lovers alike. With multiple experiences throughout including a velociraptor training course and demonstration you won’t’ leave disappointed, and don’t worry the big T-rex makes an appearance too.
Where is Jurassic World Exhibition Brunswick?
Like its predecessor, the Jurassic World Exhibition Melbourne can be found in the heart of Brunswick on Dawson Street. Its convenient location, just across the road from Brunswick Secondary College, means you are only a stone’s throw from Sydney Road shops, cafes and pubs if you’re looking for a drink or something to eat afterwards.
Parking can be a challenge in peak times and on weekends, so consider taking public transport to Jurassic World: The Exhibition. The closest trams can be found at either end of Dawson Street, with the most convenient on Sydney Road. If you are taking the train to the Jurassic World Exhibition then hopping off at either Brunswick station or Jewell Station will leave you roughly a ten minute walk to the experience.
