ROYAL OAK, Mich. – A dinosaur attraction is returning to the Detroit Zoo this summer for the first time since 2022.

The Dinosauria attraction returns to the Detroit Zoo from May 25 to Sept. 8. The experience takes guests along a winding trail throughout the zoo.

Dinosauria includes more than 25 lifelike, animatronic dinosaurs, and includes multiple hands-on fossil dig sites, dinosaur-themed gifts, and more.

Dinosauria is roaring back for the first time since 2022, and we couldn’t be more excited,” said Emily O’Hara, senior manager of guest experience design. “Come see dinos from different eras show off their infamous traits as they face off along the trail. With fun for the whole family, Dinosauria is a can’t-miss addition to your next Detroit Zoo visit.”

Dinosauria is open during regular zoo hours. Entry to Dinosauria costs $6 per person in addition to zoo admission.

Guests with a Detroit Zoo membership can get a Dino Pass for $45, which offers unlimited admission to Dinosauria. The price increases to $60 on June 1.
