With a selection of themed food and drink vendors throughout, adventurers can stop to re-charge before heading on to explore our animal exhibits and braving dinosaur territory at dusk!

Don’t forget to capture a lasting memory at our prehistoric photo opportunity and take home your own personalised souvenir from our kiosks in the gift shop.

This evening is for all ages to enjoy, however, we also have a range of adults and member only evenings to choose from. So if you prefer a tipple over tots, check out After Hours for grown-ups.
