Next year, Roarr! will also open a Gigantosaurus-themed ride before launching the full land in 2026.

Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure in Norfolk, UK is opening four new attractions this summer ahead of the delayed launch of its new Gigantosaurus Land in 2026.

The dinosaur-themed park is adding two new rides, ‘Swing-O-Saurus’ and ‘Raptor Contractor’, a new live stage show, and exclusive screenings of Gigantosaurus.

Next year, Roarr! will open a Gigantosaurus-themed ride before launching the full land in 2026. Based on the animated preschool TV series, the Gigantosaurus Land was originally due to open in 2024.

“We are thrilled to be able to offer three amazing new attractions this year as we prepare for Gigantosaurus Land, which we are now looking to open in 2026,” said Adam Goymour, park director.

The scheduling change “has been taken with our guest experience in mind and will provide a fun and exciting experience for guests of all ages over the coming months”, he added.

Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure has invested “over half a million pounds in these new attractions to support the development of tourism in the region”, Goymour said.

“We are constantly reevaluating long-term project plans to ensure we offer our guests the best product possible, and continue to develop the business responsibly,” he added.

“The decision has therefore been taken to postpone the full creation of Giganotosaurus Land for a short amount of time.”

The new four-acre land is the largest development in the dino-themed park‘s history. It is being completed in three phases.

The first phase includes a ‘vertical volcano’ drop ride, spinning flower teacups, water play, a jumping pillow, and a wooden climbing den.

Goymour explained: “We need to make sure that any investment is prudent and keeps us on a sound financial footing whilst avoiding price increases for visitors at a time when many families are facing increased economic pressure.”
