Aug. 27 – Labor Day, Sept. 7, 2026
27 Days 9 Hours 32 Mins
Come face to face with the biggest dinosaurs you’ve never heard of! Presented by the Science Museum of Minnesota.
Through life-size skeleton casts, real fossils, augmented reality interactives and cutting-edge science, you'll be introduced to some very strange dinosaurs – creatures that evolved in wild isolation across the Southern Hemisphere and look nothing like their northern, more familiar cousins. Then, get closer to home and see real Minnesota fossils, and find out just how massive our new official State Fossil, the giant beaver, actually was. Dig deeper with Science Museum of Minnesota paleontologists at Fossil Corner during select hours Aug. 27-29 and Sept. 2-4. Free with fair admission.
Ultimate Dinosaurs is 12 days, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. (8 p.m. Labor Day)
Located in the North End Event Center, north of Murphy Avenue between Cooper & Cosgrove streets
