Get ready to unleash your inner dinosaur! On Friday, January 10, 2025, the Cox Science Center and Aquarium in West Palm Beach invites dino enthusiasts of all ages to participate in an official Guinness World Record™ attempt for the Largest Gathering of People Dressed as Dinosaurs. The goal? To surpass the current record of 252 dinosaurs set in Los Angeles in 2019.
The event begins at 6:30 pm on The Great Lawn at 100 N. Clematis Street, with judging promptly at 7:00 pm. Participants are encouraged to wear full-body dinosaur costumes, such as inflatable suits or onesies, ensuring they’re covered from head to toe. Dino rider suits and partial costumes won’t count, so make sure you abide by these rules to make history!
