The Natural History Museum’s new exhibition, Jurassic Oceans: Monsters of the Deep, will make its European debut on 22 May 2026, inviting visitors to explore the underwater world of 200 million years ago through marine reptile fossils, interactive displays, and hands-on experiences. The exhibition brings audiences face to face with prehistoric ocean predators including ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, and mosasaurs, while also highlighting the broader ecosystems in which they lived. Drawing on the Museum’s palaeontology collections and scientific expertise, the show connects deep-time discovery with present-day understanding of how ecosystems change and why top predators matter to ocean health. Jurassic Oceans: Monsters of the Deep is supported by the Blavatnik Family Foundation. Read the press release here.
