Nauticus-The Brock Theater 1 Waterside Dr, Norfolk, VA 23510 info@nauticus.org Price: Included in General Admission

Dinosaurs of Antarctica tells the story of a changing environment at the bottom of the world. In ancient times, dinosaurs and other creatures roamed freely in a lush landscape. Today, the continent holds evidence of that world, frozen beneath its ice and snow. As the climate changes again, melting Antarctic ice is allowing scientists to discover the remains of the past—including the fossils of those distinctive dinosaurs. Viewers of all ages will enjoy meeting the newest dinosaurs, like Cryolophosaurus, and other creatures in the film—as well as the dedicated scientists who explore the warming continent to find them

Dinosaurs of Antarctica will play in the Brock Theater on the third floor in Nauticus every day. Watch the trailer.

Daily Showtimes: 11AM & 2PM

Run time: 22 minutesGreat for all ages.
