The World’s Biggest Dinosaur: Dinosaurs of Patagonia at Australian Museum

Prepare for an encounter of colossal proportions as The World’s Biggest Dinosaur: Dinosaurs of Patagonia stomps into Sydney. Spanning nearly 38 metres in length and tipping the scales at around 70 tonnes, the awe-inspiring Patagotitan mayorum leads a cast of prehistoric marvels straight from the fossil beds of South America.

Opening this November to inaugurate the Australian Museum’s 200th anniversary (AM200), this premier international blockbuster offers a once-in-a-lifetime journey back 100 million years to the Cretaceous period, showcasing how Patagonia reshaped our understanding of prehistoric life on Earth.
