In an effort to expand Malta’s efforts in screen tourism, three Jurassic World Dominion models have been strategically placed across Malta to attract tourists and film-lovers near and far.
Screen tourism, or film tourism, is tourism by which a location attracts visitors due to its relevance to a film or television series. For example, some would opt to visit certain places in England & Scotland to see the locations where the Harry Potter film were shot.

Meanwhile in Malta, we have had the same effect with Game of Thrones, with many visiting St. Dominic’s Convent in Rabat, the Gate of Mdina and Fort Ricasoli amongst others for their feature in the iconic series.
The three large-scale models can be found in Valletta’s St. George’s Square, near the Freedom monument in Birgu and close to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Mellieħa, which are the three major locations where the film was shot back in 2020.
Initiatives such as this will definitely be replicated if Malta had to serve as the backdrop for another blockbuster film and this instance has definitely been a success, with tourists have reportedly flocking to the models to capture a few memorable photos.
Have you seen the models yet?
