    As many as 25 dinosaurs will be touring to Cape Town this year.

    • The DinosAlive dinos will be migrating to the Capegate Shopping Centre in Cape Town from 18 November to 8 January 2017.
    • Doors open at 9am and close at 7pm (Monday to Sunday). Last entries permitted at 5pm every day.

    The DinosAlive exhibition is comprised of familiar faces like the Tyrannosaurs Rex and Triceratops. If you’re a dinosaur lover, you’ll be able to spot more obscure names like the Spinosaurus and Ankylosaurus on show too. No visitor to DinosAlive will be able to miss the sky-scraping Brachiosaurus though, a gigantic dinosaur recreated in all its glory for the exhibition.

    These realistic dinosaurs will make you feel like you have gone back in time thanks to their lifelike movements and textures, and the sounds they make too!

    • 25 Animatronic Dinosaurs
