Construction of the Colosseum in Rome took about a decade, with inauguration ceremonies that lasted 100 days. Join us as we build and celebrate the Colosseum — in a single weekend!
Learn about the ancient Colosseum, then work alongside others to build a Roman amphitheatre with Mega Bloks®. Take a ride in a Roman-style chariot, check out ancient Roman fashion, and make your own Roman-style craft to take home.
Free with Museum admission
