Life-size ice age exhibition to run for 7 weeks

IF you’d like to see how the animals of the last Ice Age adapted and lived in their frosty habitat, you need to see the world-class Ice Age exhibition at Sandton Convention Centre in June.

Brought to South African audiences by the creators of the world-renowned Days of the Dinosaur exhibition, the Ice Age exhibition has been designed with the specific aim of being respectful of scientific research, while still ensuring an entertaining outing for the whole family.

The exhibition will offer visitors a chance to experience the latest technology in robotics and animatronic animals, all built to scale.
The display will include 45 moving, life-size animals.

Doors will open to the public on June 20 at 9am and the exhibition will be open for seven weeks until August 8. Visitors are encouraged to book their tickets early to avoid disappointment. Bookings can be made via Computicket.

Tickets cost R145 adults or R99 children (18 months to 18 years). Children under 18 months (or shorter than the sloth – 83cm) go in free.

Family packages are also available.

The exhibition will be open from 9am to 7pm Monday to Friday and from 9am to 8pm on Saturday and Sunday.
