It has been a tremendous few years for our very own Blackpool Zoo.
With many new births, investment, awards and new habitats at the East Park Drive attraction, if you haven’t been for a while then consider this a sign.
As well as the interactive Dinosaur Safari, you can take a walk in the emersive Lemur Wood and Wallaby Walkabout before getting up close and personal with big cats, majestic giraffes, camels, exotic birds, Iberian wolves, red pandas, zebras, reindeerss, sea lions, penguins, gorillas and much more.
You can also watch as keepers demonstate feeding and play times with your favourite animals at key slots throughout the day.
Then there is the new £500,000 Kidepo Trail that enables visitors to walk the full length of Giraffe Heights at eye level.
But after all that you musn’t forget the new arrivals - Zaiya the beautiful baby elephant and Rufus the cheeky baby orangutan. You could lose yourself for hours as you watch them explore the world around them.
Doors open at 10am and close at 5.45pm so you can stay for the full day.
Blackpool and Fylde coast residents living in postcode areas FY1 - FY5 can take advantage of a 20% residents' discount available on full priced adult, concession and child tickets.
The zoo also accepts Tesco Clubcard vouchers.
Adult tickets start from £21.99 when booked online and child tickets £17.99 online. Annual passes and family tickets are also available.
