DinoFest stomps back into town

The Wyndham community’s youngest will have a chance to walk in the footsteps of giants who used to walk the world.

DinoFest will march into Werribee Park Mansion and bring along interactive dino adventures and brand-new, life-like animatronics guaranteed to amaze kids and adults alike.

The show will run most days of the spring school holidays from September 20 to October 5, and then for a final reprisal on the weekend of October 11-12.

The ultimate prehistoric experience, DinoFest will feature more than 30 awesome dinosaur species including a walking triceratops, stegosaurus, spinosaurus, pachycephalosaurs, ankylosaur and lots of cute baby dinosaurs to-boot.

Specialising in tyrannosaurs, DinoFest tells the story of how tyrannosaurs grew from small dog-sized dinosaurs to become the world’s most fearsome predators over the course of 100 million years.

While the T. Rex is understandably ‘king of show’, DinoFest will also showcase a range of other popular dinosaurs that attendees can touch, pat, and interact with in a way that is deliberately designed to engage young children as a magical and life-long memorable experience.

Adding to the thrill will be a 45-minute dinosaur encounter and the awesome Dino Trail– which will be complemented by a range of educational and highly engaging kids.

In celebration of DinoFest Werribee Park Mansion, The Refectory Parlour will be serving a range of dinosaur themed treats including dino lunch boxes, dino cupcakes, dino ice-cream cones topped with popping lava, and more.

Attendees can contact the café to pre-order food or purchase on the day between 11am-4pm.
