The feature attraction is T. rex: The Ultimate Predator, where guests can meet the entire tyrannosaur family through life-sized models, fossil casts, and interactive experiences.
Presented by RBC and White Spot Restaurants, the epic exhibit will bring visitors face-to-face with the most iconic dinosaur in the world while revealing its amazing story.
