Christmas at Dinosaur World is a weird, fun salute to holiday craziness in Tampa Bay

The classic Plant City roadside stop — more than 20 acres of life-size dinos in dramatic poses — is leaning into complete yuletide craziness, a little silly mixed in with the science.

The holiday fun (lights, snow, music, Santa meet-and-greet) is included with admission.

There's also a holiday train, an elf workshop, and more.

The event runs until Jan. 4 with both daytime and evening fun.
