Erth’s Prehistoric Aquarium Tickets

The Erth deep-sea explorers dare their young audiences to dive with them into an ocean full of amazing prehistoric marine life in this fun, awe-inspiring science show.

Following on from their much-loved Dinosaur Zoo, the team at Erth have built an aquarium and filled it with prehistoric marine reptiles. Either from the safety of their seats, or right up close to the action, families and their children are invited to interact with these majestic aquatic creatures and learn about some of nature’s greatest mysteries along the way.

Boasting beautiful puppetry, inflatable environments and an immersive underwater atmosphere, this live-theatre performance is at once an enchanting and educational journey into the world of dinosaurs, natural history and the science of palaeontology.
