Summer holidays are one of our busiest and best times of year. Here’s everything you need to know to plan a cool, comfortable visit.
Holiday hours
We’re open every day of the Victorian school holidays, and on public holidays, except Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day.
| When | Hours |
| Fridays (school terms) | 10am – 3pm, story time at 11am |
| Saturdays & Sundays | 10am – 4pm |
| School holidays & public holidays | Open every day |
| Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year’s Day | Closed |
There’s no Friday story time during the school holidays, but Bedrock mini golf runs on holiday Fridays.
On very hot days
On days of 34°C or more, we may close early at 2pm. Our advice: come early. Mornings are cooler, quieter, and the dinosaurs are just as roarsome.
Hot-day tips
- Arrive at 10am to enjoy the cooler part of the day.
- Stick to the shade. Our dinosaurs live among the Christmas trees, so most paths are well shaded.
- Head indoors. Bedrock mini golf is indoors, and Dig & Discover is undercover — perfect for the hottest part of the morning.
- Cool down with a treat. Grab an ice cream or a scoop of Bedrock Gelato, plus cold drinks from our kiosk.
- Pack the basics: hats, sunscreen and full water bottles for everyone.
Before you leave home

See you this summer! Tickets are sold at the gate — no booking needed.
