All ages. Suit up in your best dinosaur costume (inflatables and dinosaur jammies encouraged!) and waddle, sprint, or stomp your way around our Montpelier Park's paved footpath by the playground and football field! No time restraints or competition, just Jurassic-sized laughs, tiny arms, and a prehistoric good time for all!&nbsp;
The Largest Gathering of People Dressed as&nbsp;Dinosaurs consists of&nbsp;682 people and was achieved by&nbsp;the University of Calgary in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on April 11, 2026.&nbsp;&nbsp;Can Montpelier beat that record?&nbsp;
