Jurassic World: The Exhibition Roars Open in Philadelphia!

The Park is Open! Well at least in Philadelphia. Today was the grand opening of Jurassic World: The Exhibition at The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Exhibition makes its North American debut after spending nearly 7 months at the Melbourne Museum in Australia.

The Exhibition opened today, and will run through April 23, 2017. New to the Exhibition, guests can get an up close experience with Blue the Velociraptor – this Raptor suit and experience were not part of the previous opening in Australia.

“Get closer to dinosaurs than ever before in Jurassic World: The Exhibition! Based on one of the biggest blockbusters in cinema history, the Exhibition immerses audiences of all ages in scenes inspired by the beloved film. Now, the park that was only a promise comes to life…right before your eyes.

Travel to Isla Nublar as a VIP guest and explore Jurassic World. Stare in wonder at a towering Brachiosaurus; come face-to-face with a Velociraptor; and get a rare up-close look at the most vicious dinosaur of them all, Tyrannosaurus rex.

Created in close collaboration with renowned paleontologist Jack Horner, the Exhibition is infused with interactive educational elements—drawn from the real-world science of dinosaur DNA that allowed Jurassic World to come to life. Visitors of all ages can now learn all about these incredible prehistoric creatures.”
