An immersive 360-degree dinosaur experience at London's Lightroom, blending cutting-edge digital technology with real fossil science. From £25.

About Prehistoric Planet: Discovering Dinosaurs

Travel back in time to the age of the dinosaurs at one of London's most spectacular immersive venues. Prehistoric Planet: Discovering Dinosaurs at the Lightroom invites visitors of all ages to step into a vividly realised prehistoric world, where state-of-the-art digital technology and genuine palaeontological discovery combine to create something truly unforgettable. From towering creatures of the late Cretaceous to the microscopic details of fossilised bone, this is a journey through deep time unlike anything else showing in the capital right now.

A World Built Around You

The Lightroom is one of London's most exciting cultural spaces, and Prehistoric Planet: Discovering Dinosaurs makes full use of every square metre. Vast LED walls and responsive floor projections transform the venue into a series of ancient landscapes, placing visitors at the heart of environments that vanished from the Earth tens of millions of years ago. Realistic soundscapes complete the picture, filling the air with the atmosphere of a world long gone. Whether you are gazing up at a skeletal reconstruction or watching a digital horizon stretch out around you, the sense of scale is consistently breathtaking.

Science You Can Touch

What makes this experience stand out from a conventional exhibition is its commitment to hands-on learning. A dedicated fossil excavation zone gives visitors the chance to get their hands dirty in the most rewarding way possible, using the same specialist tools employed by working palaeontologists. Expert guides are on hand throughout to explain the techniques behind careful excavation, helping guests of all backgrounds understand the painstaking craft that sits behind every major prehistoric find. Alongside the interactive dig, the exhibition features authentic fossil specimens, including genuine prehistoric teeth and meticulously assembled skeletal displays that reflect the very latest thinking in prehistoric science.

Suitable for All Ages

Few London attractions manage to speak equally to curious five-year-olds and knowledgeable adults, but Prehistoric Planet: Discovering Dinosaurs achieves exactly that. The educational content is layered carefully, so younger visitors are enchanted by the spectacle while older guests and science enthusiasts can engage with the deeper palaeontological detail. School groups, family outings, and date nights all find something to love here, making it one of the most versatile cultural experiences currently available in the city.
