School Holidays at Queensland Museum Kurilpa

There’s only a few weeks left to experience Croc! Lost Giants to Living Legends, the family-friendly exhibition taking visitors on a journey through the fascinating world of crocodiles.

Discover how these incredible creatures survived alongside the dinosaurs, with plenty for kids to touch, play with and learn from. Pick up a children’s map at the entrance and let little explorers lead the way.

To celebrate the final days of the exhibition, Vincent Babia and his Dance Team will perform live traditional Saibai Island song, dance and storytelling in the museum forecourt across three sessions at 10am, 12pm and 2pm.

The exhibition closes Monday, 5 October, making the September school holidays the perfect time for a visit. Plus, you can enjoy half-price entry every Tuesday. Croc! is open daily from 9:30am to 5pm.
