Why it's the Ultimate
It's the Ultimate dinosaur exhibition because :
- It's a world premiere, you're seeing it first
- It's the largest exhibition of southern dinosaurs ever mounted in North America and the largest dinosaur exhibition in the ROM's history
- We're proud it's Canadian - curated, designed and produced by the ROM together with our Canadian team of experts: illustrator Julius T. Csotonyi, technology firm Meld Media and dinosaur builders Research Casting International
- It features dinosaurs virtually unknown to North Americans – most have just been unearthed in the last 20 years and have never been displayed in Canada before
- It includes the largest dinosaur ever mounted in Canada – Futalognkosaurus- so big we had to put it in the lobby!
- It has more multi-media than any exhibition in the ROM's history, including reactive walls that use body-scanning technology
- It's the first exhibition in Canada to use Augmented Reality to bring dinosaurs to life.
