Paleofest returns to Rockford’s Burpee Museum this weekend! 

Friday, Saturday and Sunday there will be plenty of learning opportunities for people of all ages with education stations, workshops and keynote speakers.

Paleofst has grown to influence other events to be made in a similar vane. The three-day dinosaur-focused festival is important to not only the Stateline, but to the Paleontology community as a whole.

While Stateliners a flock to Burpee to add to their own knowledge of the Paleolithic Era and beyond, Paleontologists from around the world descend on Rockford to listen to exclusive keynotes speakers discuss their findings firsthand.

Dates, times and pricing on tickets can be found here!

To get you fully informed, The Morning Stampede sat down with Burpee’s VP of Research and Operations, Josh Matthews.
