From today, 9 July to 2 November 2025, Lightroom in King’s Cross invites visitors into the world of Prehistoric Planet.

Based on Apple TV+’s Emmy‑nominated series, the documentary has been reimagined under the vaults of Coal Drops Yard.

Visitors can step into a 360 degree cinematic arena where 11‑metre LED‑wall projections transport you from arid deserts to deep oceans.

You can marvel at life‑sized dinosaurs including Tyrannosaurus rex, Mosasaurs, Ammonites, Adaltheriums and more, as director Lysander Ashton guides you through pivotal prehistoric scenes.

The immersive exhibition lasts around 50 minutes and is suitable for all ages. It is open most days from 10am until 7pm with extended hours on weekends and Fridays.
