Unique Attractions at Jurassic Quest

If you or your kids are fans of the prehistoric era, then Jurassic Quest is a must-visit event this year.

Promising the most comprehensive and accurate dinosaur exhibition in the United States, it’s making its first appearance in North Jersey.

Previously, it had made stops in Edison and Atlantic City, but this year’s event is hosted at the Meadowlands Exposition Center in Secaucus.

Jurassic Quest stands out from other dinosaur exhibitions by offering life-like animatronic dinosaurs, some of the largest rideable ones in North America.

Besides the dinosaur replicas, the event features live shows, interactive science and art activities, and the opportunity to view real dinosaur fossils.

What’s New This Year?

This year, Jurassic Quest goes above and beyond by adding more hands-on activities for attendees. The expansion includes a larger Excavation Station and additional Jurassic-themed inflatables.

Moreover, children have the chance to meet and interact with baby dinosaurs, such as Cammie the Camarasaurus, Tyson the T-Rex, and Trixie the Triceratops, making for an unforgettable experience.

Educational and Fun Activities

Jurassic Quest is not only entertaining but also educational. Kids can engage in dinosaur races against the Utahraptors or learn to lasso a dino with the help of experienced “BrontoBusters.”

The event also offers a video tour led by renowned dinosaur trainers, providing an informative and interactive learning experience.

Triceratots for the Youngest Explorers at Jurassic Quest

This soft play area features bounce houses, inflatable attractions, and photo opportunities.
