Jurassic Take-Over Day 2023 Leeds: Yorkshire arena to host rearranged interactive dinosaur experience in July where visitors can learn all about the history of dinosaurs and train as a Ranger

This year marks the 30 year anniversary since the film Jurassic Park was first released and to celebrate, First Direct Arena in Leeds will be hosting a dinosaur extravaganza with some great displays that will take you on a journey back to the era where it all started at the new event Jurassic Take-Over Day.

The original date of the event was April 12, 2023, however, due to ‘unforeseen circumstances’, the event was rearranged to another date.

Members of the public can explore the animatronic life-like dinosaurs in this new, immersive experience for all ages and audiences.

Visitors will get the chance to talk to a Triceratops, observe a Brontosaurus, admire the anatomy of a T-Rex, scream with a Spinosaurus and run away from a Raptor.

There will also be an opportunity for visitors to train as a Ranger just in case the dinosaurs ‘break out’, learn about the baby dinosaurs in the Hatchery, take photos in the Gyrosphere and with interactive Dilophosaurus, watch the specially produced dinosaur show and more.

There are three 90-minute slots available to book across the day; experience times include: 11.30am, 1.30pm and 3.30pm and it is advisable to arrive 20 minutes in advance prior to your experience start time.

The new rearranged date of the event is on Saturday, July 8, 2023.
