The Dinosaurs have taken over DHDC!
Dinosaurs Around the World begins as a visit to old continents using vintage maps. With hyper-realistic animatronics, genuine casts, and the opportunity to touch real fossils, guests will be whisked back in time with a tour of an Earth very different from what they know today.
Come explore the Don Harrington Discovery Center in Amarillo, TX, during “The Year of the Dinos!” Our summer exhibit, Dinosaurs Around the World, will be indoors so families can beat the heat and learn about the different environmental conditions each part of Pangea possessed through 10 animatronic dinosaurs, including the T. Rex, a Herrerasaurus, and an Oviraptor!
Travel back to the time before the continents as we know them existed, when arid deserts covered Brazil, and polar darkness was the norm in Australia! With advanced animatronics, a multi-layered narrative, cutting-edge research, you’ll experience the Age of Reptiles brought back to life.
The Exhibit Grand Opening: May 19
Members-Only Night: May 19, 4:30 pm to 7:00 pm
Exhibit Departure: September 6
This exhibition is created and produced by Imagine Exhibitions Inc.
