An exhibition 65 million years in the making. Welcome to Jurassic World!
Get ready, dino fans! The official award-winning Jurassic World: The Exhibition is roaring back to the UK beginning on 19 July for a limited time only in Manchester at the Trafford Centre.
For those who visited the sold-out Jurassic World: The Exhibition at ExCel Arena London in 2022, this Manchester exhibition will showcase some additional fan-favourite dinosaurs from Jurassic World.
Visitors can look forward to seeing the armoured adult Ankylosaurus and the ferocious Carnotaurus… and the good news, it’s only a short drive from Liverpool.
Jurassic World: The Exhibition is a family-friendly exhibit of massive proportions based on one of the biggest blockbuster franchises in cinema history.
Visitors will walk through the iconic Jurassic World gates, explore richly themed environments, and encounter life-sized dinosaurs like the Brachiosaurus, Velociraptors (including fan-favourite Blue), and the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex.
Guests will be able to imagine what it would have been like to roam amongst these breathtaking creatures, and interact with baby dinosaurs, including “Bumpy” from the popular animated series Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous.
Following an initial launch in Melbourne, Australia, The exhibition has become a global success with over eight million visitors. It has opened its gates to excited fans in numerous cities around the world such as Sydney, Toronto, Houston, San Diego, Chicago, Paris, Shanghai, Cologne, and Berlin.
