About This Event

Bristol Museum & Art Gallery is set to unveil a major new exhibition delving into the region’s prehistoric heritage, running from 14 May 2026. The display brings together fossils and skeletal reconstructions of dinosaurs that once roamed the local landscape, all drawn from the museum’s own extensive collections. Alongside these ancient remains, specially commissioned artworks and interactive installations will help contextualise the science, offering visitors a glimpse into how palaeontologists painstakingly reconstruct long-vanished ecosystems. Curated entirely by in-house specialists, the exhibition will also feature a number of specimens that have never before been shown to the public, providing a fresh perspective on the area’s deep past. Admission prices can be found on the museum’s website, where further details about the exhibition and associated events are also available.
