Travel back millions of years and uncover the secrets of the prehistoric world at The Age of the Dinosaurs.

Running from 1st April to 31st October, this exciting exhibition transforms Kents Cavern into a journey through deep time, where visitors can discover the incredible creatures that once ruled the Earth.

Throughout the caves, you'll encounter fascinating dinosaur displays, ancient fossils, and prehistoric stories that bring the distant past to life.
