Temporary Front Entrance & Zoomobile Station Relocation

Due to the construction of the new Community Conservation Centre at your Toronto Zoo, we have rerouted guests to a temporary front entrance. When you arrive, please follow the on-site signs directing you through the Kids Zoo Discovery Zone.

During this construction period:

  • Accessibility parking spots have been added in section C, which is the closest section to our temporary entrance.
  • The Peacock Café will be temporarily closed.
  • Guests can access Tim’s Express at the Tundra Zoomobile stop and the Caffeine Cruiser outside Zootique (weather permitting).
  • The Zoomobile main station has been temporarily relocated to Indo-Malaya.

We appreciate your patience during this time of exciting growth!

Please note that some of our outdoor animals may not always be viewable, as they have access to climate-controlled, behind-the-scenes habitats based on their seasonal needs.

🚧 Front Entrance Construction🚧

During your visit, you may notice significant fencing and construction activity at our front entrance. Please note that no animal habitats are impacted.

We’re proud to be building a new Community Conservation Centre — a state-of-the-art space that will include classrooms (in partnership with local educational institutions), community gathering areas, and a brand-new otter habitat!

This exciting addition will help us further our mission of connecting people, animals, conservation science, and traditional knowledge to fight extinction.

We appreciate your patience and apologize for any inconvenience as we work to enhance your Zoo experience.

Stay tuned to our website and social media for updates!
