Jurassic Quest is known as the biggest and most realistic dinosaur experience in North America. The event features life-sized animatronic dinosaurs that move and roar, including a towering 80-foot Apatosaurus, a fierce 60-foot Spinosaurus, and of course, the mighty T. rex. Kids can even hop on the back of a walking dinosaur for a ride they’ll never forget.

This is an experience for someone of ANY age! Little ones can enjoy the soft play area designed just for toddlers, while older kids can bounce around in giant inflatables or take on the 35-foot dino-themed derby track. There’s also a fossil dig where junior paleontologists can search for hidden treasures, hands-on science stations, and even baby dinosaurs that come out to meet the crowd.

The popular traveling dinosaur show will set up at Doggett Ford Park from September 12 through September 14, and it’s the perfect weekend trip for families from Southwest Louisiana.
