Spend one last unforgettable night beneath the feet of our very own gentle giant at the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum!

After four incredible years in Coventry, Dippy the Diplodocus is preparing to leave the Herbert and move on to his next destination. Before he goes, we’re inviting you to join us for one final Doze Under Dippy – a unique overnight adventure celebrating the extraordinary dinosaur who has captured the hearts and imaginations of visitors of all ages.

Bring your sleeping bags, roll out your mats and settle in for a night at the museum! Enjoy a special after-hours experience, with opportunities to explore, discover and make memories together beneath Dippy’s towering skeleton. It’s a rare chance to see the museum after dark and spend the night alongside one of the world’s most famous dinosaurs.

On loan from the Natural History Museum, Dippy has been a much-loved visitor to Coventry for the past four years, inspiring curiosity, creativity and a love of the natural world. Now, as we prepare to say goodbye, this final sleepover is your chance to be part of his Coventry story.

Don’t miss your last chance to doze under Dippy! Gather your family, pack your pyjamas and join us for a truly memorable farewell to our Jurassic giant.
