Dinosaurs Are Forever comes to Blenheim Palace this summer - a major new exhibition by artist Jay Burridge, created in partnership with the Oxford University Museum of Natural History. At the heart of the exhibition are five monumental sculptures of Megalosaurus, the first dinosaur ever to be scientifically named.
These sculptures are not traditional museum reconstructions. Built from advanced modern materials and designed to be fully articulated, the sculptures reimagine dinosaurs through a contemporary lens. Making their public debut at Blenheim Palace, the exhibition offers visitors a rare opportunity to encounter the world's first named dinosaur reimagined for the 21st century.
Discovered in Oxfordshire in 1824, Megalosaurus changed our understanding of the natural world and helped lay the foundations of modern palaeontology.
Included with an annual pass or Park & Gardens ticket
