Aug 12, 2019

Visiting a zoo and aquarium can be mesmerizing for kids and a walk through childhood remembering all the fun for adults. Add special events and experiences to a current visit and everyone of all ages will create exciting memories that last a lifetime.

Visitor Experiences

The zoo offers a variety of visitor experiences that add even more excitement to an already fun-filled day. If you’d like to see what happens behind the scenes, sign up for a Backstage Experience. You can also learn about the responsibilities needed to take care of the many animals that call the zoo home when signing up for the Keeper Experience.

Enjoy a look at some of the areas in comfort with a Golf Cart Tour or have an original painting created when you sign up for the Animal Artists experience. With the Wildlife Safari Park experience, you’ll see and meet some of the resident animals including a visit to the Cheetah Breeding Center.

Special Events

Throughout the year, special events are scheduled for added entertainment. A few of the events to look forward to include Member Appreciation Day, Late Nights at the Zoo (adults only), Annual Zoo Run, Ghouls & Glow, and Thanksgiving Day and New Year’s Day openings.

Education

Experience an onsite adventure at the zoo with one of the educational options such as overnight Sleeping Bag Safaris or Family Safaris, 21+ and Over Safaris, Wildlife Safari Park Camp Outs, and more.

Spend some time on the “wild side” with a day or night getting to know and understand the inhabitants of the Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium.
