Ho ho ho! Oaklands Zoo and farm will once again be opening to the public, offering a relaxed and family-friendly way to explore our teaching zoo and farm. Visitors are welcome to arrive at any time between 11am and 4pm.Please note this is a self-guided visit – there are no scheduled tours. However, a Daily Events Board will be available at the entrance of the zoo building, featuring timings for activities such as animal feeding and festive enrichment sessions (e.g., Lemur Christmas stockings at 2:00pm), subject to animal needs.
