From film nights to dino tales and talks, there will be lots of events for dinosaur fans of all ages to enjoy during Dippy’s stay.
The full details - including dates, times and booking details - will be available from early July and below is a sneak preview of what is in store!
Saturday Stories
Every Saturday morning from 9am until 9.30am, Saturday Stories will take place, giving children the unique chance to hear some dinosaur tales read aloud under the tail of Dippy.
Talkative Tuesdays
Talkative Tuesdays will be a weekly series of evening talks taking place around Dippy. These talks will focus on the encounter between faith and science through the ages, ranging from accounts of Creation in the Bible to mediaeval monasteries to today’s climate crisis.
Fun Thursdays
There will be a Fun Thursdays programme which will feature everything from film screenings of Jurassic Park and Paddington Bear (in which Dippy makes a cameo appearance) to unique organ recitals played by the Cathedral’s musicians. There will also be a quiz night and special art and photography evenings for people to capture Dippy on camera or canvas outside of the busy times of the daytime exhibition.
Guided Tours
Guided tours will normally take place twice a day Monday to Saturday at 11am and 2pm.
The full details of the Dippy events programme - including dates, times and booking details - will be available from early July on the events page of this website.
