Fresh off its rousing success in the bigger cities, the Dinosaur World Festival is stomping right into our backyard, ready to give locals a monstrous dose of Mesozoic magic.
Why Klerksdorp? Why Now?
It's been a whopping seven years since dinosaurs last roamed our local scene. After countless requests, the festival organizers decided it was high time to bring the excitement directly to our doorsteps—no long drives to Jozi or Durban required. The best part? It's tailored for affordability and family fun, ensuring everyone from tots to teachers can get in on the action.
Meet the Mighty T-Rex and Friends
Imagine coming snout-to-snout with a Tyrannosaurus rex, without the risk of becoming its lunch! The festival promises face time with these ancient giants, complete with all the roars and thrills, minus the chills. This is not just about fun; it's a vivid, walk-through history lesson that you won’t get in any classroom.
The Festival Layout: A Dinosaur Buffet!
The event isn't just throwing bones; it's a full-course meal of dino delights. With sections ranging from the Dino Expo to a slithery Reptile Show, there's something to tickle every prehistoric fancy. Feeling artsy? Dabble in some Dino Coloring. Want a snapshot for the 'gram? Strike a pose at the Dino Egg photo booth.
Tickets: Your Passport to the Past
Starting at a mere R50 for a Bronze ticket, visitors can enjoy markets, food stalls, and bouncy castles, while top-tier ticket holders gain access to exclusive exhibits like the Dino Museum. And for a few extra bucks, you can hop on a dino ride or dive into a virtual Jurassic world.
Spreading the Word: A Community Affair
Here's the kicker: the more of us show interest, the bigger and better the festivities. So, it's time to rally the troops—spread the word, bring the family, and let’s make sure Klerksdorp Dinosaur World Festival is a roaring success.

My husband bought tickets for Sunday and already people are saying they had such a bad experience. From staff being rude to only 2 life size dinos!! I am fuming. The packages were really expensive to buy. Not off to a good start.
