Private Zoo Experiences
Invest in an unforgettable experience with private access to the zoo after hours. With the zoo all to yourselves, you and your guests can explore and meet animals at your own pace.
Why choose just one space when you can rent private access to the zoo’s most popular areas? Whether a half rental or a full rental, the private zoo experience offers your guests exclusive access to wildlife habitats.
Plus, add on to your rental with private access to attractions like the zoo train, carousel and lawn games. Or book the zoo amphitheater for a private performance on the zoo lawn.
