Mega Creatures Night Safari at Hunter Valley Gardens is a dazzling journey into the night where Dinosaurs, Dragons and Mythical Legends come to life! On weekends and during the autumn school holidays from 28 March, you can explore the Gardens in a whole new light, following pathways into a spellbinding after-dark world where colossal dinosaurs loom, mighty dragons guard ancient ruins, and magical unicorns shimmer beneath the night sky.

With illuminated creature displays, a rich fantasy atmosphere and thrilling amusement rides* adding to the excitement, the Night Safari transforms Mega Creatures into a truly unforgettable twilight adventure. It’s a magical evening experience designed to spark imagination, thrill young explorers, and leave families wide-eyed with wonder long after the night ends.
