1. Come Meet the World's Biggest Known Dinosaur at Science Centre Singapore 

Venue: Science Centre Singapore, The Annexe 
Dates: From 11 Oct 2025
Admission: From $25.90

A new, epic dinosaur exhibition, DINOSAURS | EXTINCTIONS | US, has arrived at Science Centre Singapore. This largest ever dinosaur showcase in Singapore features two renowned exhibitions, Dinosaurs of Patagonia and Six Extinctions, together for the first time — with a special section by the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum (LKCNHM) spotlighting Singapore’s own biodiversity story.

Organised by Science Centre Singapore and LKCNHM, DINOSAURS | EXTINCTIONS | US promises an extraordinary journey through 400 million years of Earth's history. The exhibition spans an enormous 3,000 square metres, with 33 rare fossils and 60 full-scale models across three interactive zones, including a massive 40-metre-long, 70 tonnes heavy Patagotitan mayorum, one of the largest dinosaurs that ever walked on earth, and the life-sized cast of “Scotty,” the largest Tyrannosaurus rex ever discovered. 

This exhibition will reveal the dramatic rise and fall of prehistoric life and the five major mass extinction events that have shaped our planet before culminating in a thought-provoking look at the current "Sixth Extinction" driven by human activity on the climate. 

The exhibition is now open for a limited time only—purchase your tickets here.
