We are excited to offer a more relaxed and sensory-friendly experience for visitors with sensory requirements.
We host quiet hours and autism-friendly afternoons on certain dates, providing a quieter environment with reduced noise and crowds.
Quiet hours will run from 9am to 10am, allowing families to explore the zoo with a more peaceful atmosphere, at an earlier time than the general public.
Autism-friendly afternoons will take place from 3pm to 6pm, offering a calmer zoo experience later in the day.
