Creatures on Campus

Friday 8th May 2026


Where the wild things glow…

Sneak into a hidden territory after dark and tiptoe among magnificent, larger-than-life creatures of land and sea as they glow to life around you. As you step into Creatures on Campus, immerse yourself in their biosphere and experience the beauty and sounds of the secret world they call home.

Creatures on Campus is a free event for curious minds and wildlife enthusiasts of all ages.

Highlights include:

  • Giant creatures and roaming puppets – Brought to us by A Blank Canvas, get up close to a 5m tiger, a falcon with a 10m wingspan, 3m angler fish and 2m flamingos as they roam around.
  • Never-before-seen animatronics – Marvel at a 27m Kaurna skink, 6m pandas, giraffes, and foxes brought to life with incredible animatronics that move just like in the wild, some for the first time in Australia!
  • Expert talks and live wildlife – Meet live marsupials, birds of prey, snakes, lizards, turtles, and frogs, and hear from top wildlife and conservation researchers.
  • VR animal adventure – Dive into immersive VR experiences, explore fossils, and enjoy hands-on activities for all ages.

Whether you’re chasing wonder or simply curious, step into a world where glowing creatures come to life around you. See you in the wild!
