Frequently Asked Questions, Discounts & Dino-riffic Resources

Group Discounts – Bring your whole pack for a DINO-mite time!

Groups with 10 or more paying guests save.  Under the discounted rate, all Dino access for both adults and children (ages 2 & up) is just $7 per person.

All “Return of the Dinosaurs” group tickets are sold online-only, and tickets will not be sold at the exhibit.  E-tickets are automatically sent after purchase and to prevent traffic issues at the entrance, group members must distribute tickets to their attendees before arriving on grounds.  Dinosaur tickets are a separate fee from daytime admission, so be sure to check out our daytime admission group rates here.

Please note: this is a special feature, so chaperones do not receive complimentary admission and Providence Schools also do not attend free.  Every attendee must have a ticket to enjoy the Dinosaur feature.

Join us for special sensory-friendly mornings an hour before the dinosaur trail opens to the public: designed for those with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and sensory processing differences and their families from 8-9 am.
