Closures and Works

Closures and Works

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:

  • Due to maintenance, the road behind the Capybara enclosure will be blocked off from the 21st of December. Guests will still be able to access the Capybara and Gorilla exhibit.

  • The Seals for the Wild presentation, powered by Red Energy, will not be showing from 4-24 March 2024 whilst we undertake some important scheduled maintenance to the Seal Theatre pools.
