Japan’s life-size roaming dinosaurs roar into Singapore for Dino-A-Live’s overseas debut

Inside each massive suit, human performers operate mechanisms to replicate the reptiles’ movements.

Life-size dinosaurs have taken the stage in Singapore for Dino-A-Live's first overseas performance. The immersive experience, featuring 15 robotic dinosaurs including a tyrannosaurus rex and other prehistoric creatures, will run at Resorts World Convention Centre from December 3 to 6. Created by On-Art Corp, the show uses a patented Dino-Techne technology that allows trained human performers to operate the suits, enabling lifelike movements and interactions.

Dino-A-Live marks an exciting departure from traditional museum exhibits and CGI, aiming to offer visitors a genuine, emotional connection to these ancient creatures. The series, which debuted in 2025, boasts a range of dinosaurs, many of which were developed over six months. With a focus on inspiring a love for nature and living creatures, the show promises an unforgettable, lifelong memory for all attendees.
