THE Dino Expo is a mesmerising, not-to-be-missed exhibition of realistic, life-size, animatronic dinosaurs that capture the imagination with their life-like demeanour and movement.
The expo takes place at the Alberton Civic Hall on February 2 and 3 from 10am until 4pm.
The accurate to science dinosaurs promise to ‘prehistorify’ the senses with their life-like roaring, electrifying the environs and inspiring adrenaline-filled excitement.
Get lost in a phenomenally realistic landscaped forest with natural trees canopying a misty pathway. Take the Jurassic Tour through a magically lit, fog-infused prehistoric jungle setting complete with natural shrubs and bushes, prehistoric plants, beautiful rocks and sparkling waterfalls.
See the Jurassic, hear the prehistoric, smell the jungle, feel the wonder. It is a mystifying environment ideal for people from diverse cultures and walks of life across all age ranges.
The Dino Expo also has an activation area for children featuring a variety of dinosaur-themed edutainment activities that will engage the young ones at the mental, emotional and physical levels.
