A prom 65 million years in the making. Here’s what’s in store for this unforgettable night!
- We encourage you to rock your finest prom attire with a prehistoric twist! Think prehistoric posh, fossil fashion, a glamorous gown, animal prints, and maybe even some bone accessories. Please, no face coverings or fake weapons of any kind. And while loincloths may have been trendy in the Stone Age, they don’t quite meet our modern-day dress code standards. Don’t feel like showing everyone else up in your jaw-dropping outfit? No worries, dressing up is not required to attend this event.
- Enjoy access to all our exhibits all night long.
- Sip dino-mite cocktails, mocktails from The Lucky Pony, and brews that will have you roaring for more.
- Feast on bites from Wolf in the Woods and The Craft Taco.
- Strike your prom-perfect pose at the Pixter photobooth.
- Meet scientists from The Nat and learn more about the work we've been doing.
- Get your hands dirty with the San Diego Archaeological Center as you learn about some prehistoric tools.
- Ever wanted to work with real fossils? Take a dig at it in our Paleo demo lab.
- Plus, meet some of our friends at Endangered Concepts, California Wolf Center, Anza Borrego Foundation, Humble Servants of the Worm, Mission Trails Regional Park Foundation, OnionCakes, San Diego Tracking Team, the San Diego Air and Space Museum, and more.
