Dinosaurs Around the World: The Great Outdoors at South Coast Botanic Garden
December 26, 2025 @ 8:00 am – 4:30 pm PST
Experience the Age of Reptiles here at South Coast Botanic Garden. Immersed throughout our 87 acres, guests will get to meet 13 life-sized animatronic dinosaurs. Each one moves with quiet, graceful motions, and some even make noise. Take a road trip through the ancient land mass, Pangea, where all the continents came together before drifting to their more modern positions across the globe. Guided by bright, vintage billboards and stone trail-head markers, find out which dinosaurs lived where, how they got there, and when they walked the earth! This exhibit is included with Garden Admission and runs through February 1, 2026..
