Walking With Dinosaurs: The Arena Spectacular Delivers Shock and Awe At Staples Center Imagine coming face-to-face with a giant T-rex — hearing its awesome roar and staring right into its hungry eyes — without worrying about becoming a snack. That’s what the Walking With Dinosaurs: The Arena Spectacular offers, as you thrill to the sights and sounds of 20 life-size dinosaurs roaming the arena floor — feeding, fighting, protecting their young and defending their territory. These amazing creatures might’ve roamed the earth 65 million years ago, but they’ve also been stomping into major cities across the globe with this theatrical event, marveled at by millions. Based on the award-winning BBC TV series and developed by scientists and internationally renowned designers, Walking With Dinosaurs is both a fascinating study in natural history and an engaging, innovative piece of live entertainment.
