This year Field Station: Dinosaurs is giving you “More with a Roar!”
Don’t miss all the thrills on Opening Day as we kick off our eighth exciting season of music, laughter and learning at our revamped base of operations in Bergen County’s beautiful Overpeck County Park.
Explore the mysterious riverside trails and come face to face with the Mighty T-Rex. The Field Station hosts over 30 live shows, games and activities every day that are included in the price of your Day Pass. Meet our Paleo Picasso and learn to draw a dinosaur, be witness to some of science’s Great Moments of Discovery and help us choose the menu for a Tyrannosaurus Rex at the T-Rex Feeding Frenzy. We’re battling summer “brain drain” with fast-paced games, education shows and non-stop hilarity all day long!
And new for 2019, we’ve got Baby Dinosaurs! — a world premier show that answers the musical question, “What came first, the dinosaur or the egg?” Next, we have the Mesozoic Midway, a crazy collection of Dinosaur-themed carnival games where everybody plays and everybody wins a prize!
Of course, all your old favorites will be back, including Dinosaur Daredevil! — the Field Station’s cool, glow-in-the-dark live puppet show which you can add to your adventure for just $5!
It’s shaping up to be our best season yet on the banks of Overpeck Creek! Don’t miss one minute of the action because, in 2019, you get “More with a Roar!”
2019 Library Tour
We might be coming to your neighborhood!
The Dinosaur Troubadour from Field Station: Dinosaurs loves nothing more than sharing his knowledge of dinosaurs through song with children who are as interested in dinosaurs as he is. The Dinosaur Troubadour will be stopping by various NJ libraries in Spring 2019 for story-time, sing-along, and a dance party. Joining him will be an unbelievably life-like roaring, breathing, 15-foot juvenile T-Rex. It will be an interactive, entertaining and surprising Paleozoic adventure!
