THE Dino Expo is a mesmerizing, not-to-be-missed exhibition of realistic, life-size, accurate-to-science animatronic dinosaurs that capture the imagination with their life-like demeanour and movement.
It will take place on February 2 – 4 from 10am until 4pm at the Alberton Civic Centre.
They will ‘prehistorify’ the senses with their life-like legendary roaring sounds that electrify the environs and inspire adrenaline-filled excitement.
Get lost in this phenomenally realistic, artistically landscaped, captivating forest where natural trees canopy a misty pathway.
Gracefully meander through a colourfully and magically lit, fog-infused wonderland.
This prehistoric jungle setting features natural shrubs and bushes, prehistoric plants, beautiful rocks and sparkling waterfalls.
This is affectionately referred to as ‘the Jurassic tour’.

It is a breathtaking and awe-inspiring experience that heightens the emotions and intimately indulges the senses: sight, sound, smell and touch.
See the Jurassic, hear the prehistoric, smell the jungle, feel the wonder.
It is a mystifying environment ideal for people from diverse cultures and all walks of life across all age ranges.
