Birthday Parties

Forget those dingy bowling alleys and concrete “family entertainment centers.” Toss away those cardboard party hats and worthless skeeball tickets. At Field Station: Dinosaurs we’re saying good-bye to boring, uninspired birthday parties and inviting your child into an outdoor Paleozoic world of mystery, learning and unforgettable thrills.

Every party includes admission to the Field Station and its dramatic dinosaur-lined trails, a knowledgeable party planner designated to your group, and VIP seating at an Amphitheater show. Each birthday boy and girl gets a photo opportunity with The Mighty T-Rex and the guest of honor receives a special hat to remember his or her incredible trip back in time. Each guest receives an age appropriate gift as a thank-you for sharing this special day with your child. The number of birthday parties is extremely limited, please call 855.999.9010 to check availability. 

PLEASE NOTE: We are an outdoor exhibition. Party spaces are located in tented areas and are held rain or shine. Without a birthday reservation through Field Station: Dinosaurs, we do not permit parties, cakes, party decorations, etc. to be brought into the park.
