Mega Creatures

Venture a little deeper into Hunter Valley Gardens these school holidays and you will stumble across a spectacular display of giants that will thrill both parents and children alike! The annual Mega Creatures event showcases some of Australia's largest animatronic bugs and dinosaurs, getting you up close and personal with an amazing variety of enormous insects and roaring monsters.

Mega Creatures will suit even the busiest of holiday agendas - open daily from the 2^nd to 26^th of January 2017 day and night, Mega Creatures will offer the perfect family-friendly outing this summer. Displays include the infamous 8 metre T-rex, giant Triceratops, towering tarantula, mega-sized snail and much more.

Kids of all ages will be delighted (or even terrified!) as they experience life-like sounds and movements of these giant dinos and creepy crawlies. They may even learn a thing or two about our prehistoric friends.

After your exciting encounters with the animatronic Mega Creatures why not extend the experience and visit Hunter Valley Garden's dazzling Christmas Lights Spectacular, which is on now until 26^th January, 2016.
