Closures and Works

Closures at Taronga Zoo Sydney

We're working towards a positive future for wildlife and this means that sometimes there could be closures or works ongoing that may impact your experience. We understand there is never a good time to build a better Zoo, however the work we are investing in is to improve our animal habitats and deliver experiences that influence positive behaviour change to support the future of our wildlife.

We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Exhibits or areas that are currently closed for works include: 

  • Free Flight Birds is cancelled on Wednesday, 25th September due to maintenance.
  • The lift to Great Southern Oceans is being upgraded from 15th August to 4th December 2024. The stairs will still be available for use from the bottom entrance to the Zoo, and Great Southern Oceans can still be accessed from the Top Entrance. 
  • The Blue Mountains Bushwalk will be closed from Monday 16th September - Tuesday 17th September
  • The escalators at Taronga Food Market will be closed from 1st August to 6th November 
  • The Sky Safari retired on Tuesday 31 January 2023. This experience is currently closed as we build a new and more accessible cable car experience for our guests.
