Dinolab Brings Animatronic Dinosaurs and VR to Mexico City's Granja Las Américas

Mexico City's Granja Las Américas has expanded its family offerings with the opening of Dinolab, a prehistoric-themed attraction combining animatronics and virtual reality. The move signals a shift toward immersive "edutainment" for the park's visitors.

Dinolab features a series of animatronic dinosaurs and VR adventures designed to engage guests in a high-tech environment. Access to the attraction is integrated into the park's "pasaporte familiar" (family passport) system, meaning entry is included with general admission rather than requiring a separate ticket.

This launch is part of a larger rebranding and expansion of the venue into "La Nueva Granja Las Américas." As part of this transformation, the park has inaugurated eight interactive experiences aimed at increasing its appeal as a primary destination for children and families. The integration of digital technology into the traditional park setting is intended to modernize the guest experience.

The addition of high-tech animatronics and VR to a traditional farm and park setting reflects a growing trend in immersive tourism within Mexico City. By blending educational themes with advanced technology, the venue is positioning itself to attract a wider demographic of tech-savvy families and dinosaur enthusiasts who seek more than passive observation.

As La Nueva Granja Las Américas continues to roll out its interactive experiences, the success of Dinolab will likely serve as a benchmark for how traditional family destinations in the region integrate VR and robotics. While the core prehistoric experience is now open, the park continues to emphasize its role as a comprehensive summer destination for the city's residents, blending the charm of a traditional farm with the spectacle of modern robotics.
