Jurassic Quest at the Connecticut Convention Center Hartford

The largest and most realistic dinosaur exhibit in North America is BACK, BIGGER and BETTER than EVER!
More than 100 photorealistic dinosaurs are returning to delight Hartford area families when Jurassic Quest® heads to the Connecticut Convention Center March 10th through 12th, 2023.

Jurassic Quest will return with its most beloved and unique indoor experiences for the whole family including more than 100 life-like dinosaurs, dinosaur themed rides, live dinosaur shows, interactive science and art activities, a “Triceratots” so play area for our littlest explorers, bounce houses and inflatable attractions (socks required), photo opportunities, and more.

Walk through the Cretaceous, Jurassic and Triassic periods to see the dinos that ruled on land, and “deep dive” into the “Ancient Oceans” exhibit to come face to face with the largest apex predator that ever existed – a moving, life-size, 50-foot-long megalodon! Meet the babies, hatched only at Jurassic Quest: Cammie the Camarasaurus, Tyson the T-Rex and Trixie the Triceratops – and, you may even catch one of our star dino trainers: Safari Sarah, Dino Dusn, Captain Caleb, Prehistoric Nick or Park Ranger Marty!
