'Jurassic Park' Takes Over at London’s Natural History Museum Shop

Celebrating 30 years since “Jurassic Park” first stomped onto screens, Universal Pictures, Amblin Entertainment and the Natural History Museum have collaborated to transform one of the Museum’s stores into a nostalgia-inducing replica of the shop featured in the original 1993 film. 

The shop is located near Earth Hall in the Museum’s Red Zone, home to the world’s most complete stegosaurus.  

The whole family can get involved with a range of creative and entertaining toys, homeware gifts and apparel – all inspired by “Jurassic Park.”  

“It’s a privilege to be celebrating 30 years of ‘Jurassic Park,’” says Paul Bufton, vice president, EMEA,

Universal Products and Experiences. “The Natural History Museum is one of the U.K.’s most iconic attractions and we couldn’t think of a more fitting collaboration. Together, we’ve created an innovative and engaging retail experience, and we are excited to bring new and fun products to even more fans.”

More than just a store, visitors will be able to follow in Dr. Grant’s footsteps to enter through the “Jurassic Park” gates, catch a glimpse of a T. Rex snarling through the window and snatch a selfie with a dinosaur.   

Highlight products include the classic “Jurassic Park” logo T-shirt and, arriving later in the spring, Funko POP! Jurassic Park dinosaur figures. Kids and adults can recreate familiar scenes from the film franchise with

Also included are limited-edition posters and prints, replica number plates and clothing decked out with Jurassic Park branding.  

“The iconic Jurassic Park film is very close to our hearts and we cannot wait to host this unique retail experience for fans of all ages to enjoy,” say Sam Barnes, retail commercial manager, Natural History Museum. “The Museum is home to world-famous dinosaurs so there couldn’t be a more appropriate location for this store. Our fantastic range of toys will inspire young minds to take interest in the fascinating world of natural history, while our homeware and prints will make great gifts for adults who grew up with this nostalgic treasure of a film. Don’t forget to take a selfie by the gates.”  

The replica shop will be open until September 2023.
