It’s official (again)! Jurassic World the Exhibition will arrive in the US this November, its first stop: Philadelphia Pennsylvania. We exclusively announced the city as the next location back in March of this year, and it was later confirmed in July by its new home, the Franklin Institute. However, it seems their confirmation was a bit premature as yesterday the news was again announced ‘exclusively’ via USA Today.

Currently residing in Melbourne Australia, Jurassic World the Exhibition is an innovative interactive tour like no other. Created by Imagine Exhibitions in partnership with Creature Technology Company, the exhibition takes you to Isla Nublar, and face to face with numerous dinosaur species via life sized animatronics. Check out our video walk-through of the Australian version of the tour (Spoiler warning!), or read on to see what’s new.

While details are scarce, our understanding is the the experience has continued to evolve behind the scenes in preparation of its debut in the United States. Tweaks to make the experience more immersive as well as flow comfortably in its new home have been made (such as climbing through a log to first see the Indominus). New attractions such as the ‘Raptor Training Paddock’ have been confirmed by the ‘Philly Voice’, and it seems reasonable to expect other surprises as well. Our guess: perhaps some props from the films can make an appearance alongside, or the Jurassic World VR experience resurrected.

Of course, with something this cool happening it only makes sense for fans to try to arrange an official meetup! Stay tuned, as we’re hoping to arrange something like that for the upcoming debut.. we’ll be sure to share more as plans become formally fleshed out.

Are you excited for Jurassic World the Exhibition, and are there any changes or additions you’d like to see at the tour? Sound off in the comments below, and stay tuned for the latest news!
