Palaeo Palooza is the dinosaur event of the summer, featuring all things dino! Hosted by the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum in Wembley AB (Grande Prairie region).

This place is a science hotbed, and Palaeo Palooza packs a dino-sized punch with an all ages dino-themed festival catering from the young to the young at heart.
