The future is bright at the Australian Museum (AM) with the return of the Jurassic Lounge after-hours party for adults on Saturday 16 June, 2018.
Jurassic Lounge: 2099, will transform the AM into the ultimate space-age playground with an ultra-futuristic line-up of music, performances, interactive games and pop-up bars.
The special Saturday night program features DJ beats, virtual-reality experiences, sci-fi storytelling, a silent disco, giant dance lessons and an interactive wormhole installation through time and space.
Jurassic Lounge: 2099 is produced in conjunction with Vivid Sydney and the Supanova Comic Con & Gaming expo.

Jurassic Lounge brings the nation's first museum to life after-hours for lovers of sci-fi, live music and good food and drinks.
Australian Museum Director and CEO Kim McKay AO said Jurassic Lounge: 2099 offers visitors a great opportunity to see the museum in a different and futuristic light.
"Jurassic Lounge will teleport the Australian Museum to the year 2099. As well as having great fun, it's an opportunity to understand about the challenges facing our planet this century and to spend a Saturday night exploring Australia's first museum in a futuristic way," she said.
