Dinos after dark returns to werribee open range zoo

Dinosaurs are taking over Werribee Open Range Zoo these school holidays with the return of Dinos After Dark - a prehistoric adventure after the sun goes down!

From 4-11 July, families can explore the glowing Dino River Trail where giant illuminated dinosaurs come to life through spectacular lighting, special effects and immersive experiences.

The African Village Lawn will be transformed into a dino-themed playground featuring a Disco Glow Zone, circus performers, hula hoops, spinning plates and plenty of family fun. Kiddos can also enjoy the Bubble Snow Zone, where they can run, jump and dance amongst a magical snowy wonderland.

Throughout the evening, keep an eye out for roaming entertainment including stilt walkers, fire twirlers and circus performers before gathering around the fire pits to toast marshmallows.

There will also be dinosaur-themed food and drinks available, with grazing boxes available to pre-book.

This is one school holiday adventure that is sure to light up the night!
