OUR STORY
Dinosaur World began in 2014 with five dinosaurs and a lot of happy faces. Before that, our founder helped a relative set up dinosaur displays for museums in Perth and Brisbane. When those displays were finished, he bought five of the dinosaurs and brought them home to our Christmas tree farm in Somerville for children to enjoy.
The joy on the children’s faces said it all. So he went straight back to the manufacturers and ordered another 18 dinosaurs. After a long battle with council for a permit, Dinosaur World opened its gates. Ten years on, we expanded by another 4 acres, added 25 more dinosaurs and built a miniature railway. Today some of our dinosaurs are more than 14 metres long and 10 metres high.
From five dinosaurs, we’ve grown into one of Australia’s favourite dinosaur adventures — and we’re still family owned. Kids meet Wilson, our big friendly walking dinosaur, and his babies Wilbur, Lollipop and Nibbles. They dig for their own fossil, ride the Train-asaurus and tee off at Bedrock mini golf. We’re best suited to children aged 2 to 8, but grandparents love us too. Whether you’re catching up with family, celebrating a birthday or just love dinosaurs, Dinosaur World is where wonderful memories are made.
