The town of Drumheller, Alta., is hoping to set a record for the ultimate prehistoric challenge on Saturday.
Hundreds of residents and dinosaur fans will dress up in their best dinosaur costumes and take part in the Jurassic Jamboree, which aims to break the Guinness World Record for the ‘Largest Gathering of People Dressed as Dinosaurs.’
The event, organized by Travel Drumheller, requires all participants to wear full body dinosaur costumes with dinosaur head and body pieces. No riding-like attire will be accepted.
The final results will not be known for a few days but town officials tell Global News that they have distributed over 3,000 bracelets to people dressed as dinosaurs.

1,100 dinosaurs gathered in Dundurn, Sask., last year, but officials say Guinness has yet to officially recognize that.
The event concludes a whole day dedicated to celebrating the dinosaur.
