There’s a reason why late-night museum events are often so well-attended. The attractions become something unique and thrilling at night. With its Dino Snores sleepover programmes, The Natural History Museum is letting visitors turn up the thrill to eleven. Yes, they are giving you the opportunity to spend the night alongside dinosaurs!
Who said dinosaurs are only for kids and not grown-ups? The ‘Dino Snores for Grown-ups’ offers visitors the chance to camp out alongside the massive new titanosaur or spend the night beneath the museum’s famed blue whale in the Hintze Hall. A three-course meal and lots of activities to make the most of your time in the museum are planned for the sleepover.
Those who stay over can enjoy free entry to galleries, live performances, a monster movie marathon that runs all night, and more. Pub quiz, stand-up comedy, live animal shows, and dinosaur-themed board games are also on the agenda! You will be sleeping to the tune of the harp and waking up to dinosaur-themed music.
