Sea Monsters

This exhibition has now ended


Sadly, with the extension of the Level 3 lockdown in Auckland, we're unable to reopen Sea Monsters as it's moving on to another city straight after the planned end date of Mon 25 Oct. If you purchased tickets prior to lockdown, our bookings team will be in touch.
