About Dinosaurs Are Forever Exhibition at Blenheim Palace
From 11 August to 01 November 2026, Blenheim Palace will host Dinosaurs Are Forever, a major new exhibition by artist Jay Jay Burridge, created in partnership with the Museum of Natural History, University of Oxford.
At the heart of the exhibition are five monumental sculptures of Megalosaurus, the first dinosaur ever to be scientifically named.
Discovered in Oxfordshire in 1824, Megalosaurus changed our understanding of the natural world and helped lay the foundations of modern palaeontology.
The fossil remains of Megalosaurus are now on display at the Museum of Natural History, University of Oxford.
These sculptures are not traditional museum reconstructions. Built from advanced modern materials and designed to be fully articulated, the sculptures reimagine dinosaurs through a contemporary lens.
Making their public debut at Blenheim Palace, the exhibition offers visitors a rare opportunity to encounter the world’s first named dinosaur reimagined for the 21st century. This exhibition is included with an Annual Pass.
Also, more Summer, less spend. Save when you visit between 25 June and 01 September!
