London Zoo is hosting a family festival this half term - here’s everything you need to know

London Zoo is set to host an action-packed family festival for animal lovers this May half-term. Visitors can visit the world-famous conservation for a ‘nature-filled day’ by attending animal talks, getting their hands dirty with arts and crafts classes and even taking part in an interactive animal game show.

Children can test their survival skills at Foxglove Fortress - one of the funky festival tents dotted around the zoo - where they can get stuck into hands-on bush-craft workshops. While junior conservationists can learn how to tell their canary’s claws from their porcupine’s paw at the tracks and trails station.

Young adventurers can also get creative building dens inspired by their favourite animals. Or burn off steam in the Tulip Tent, where they can boogie like a Bird of Paradise at the family-friendly disco.

Parents with little ones can chill out in the Lilac Lounge or join stimulating baby sensory sessions where families can journey along a fictional riverbank to explore the sights, sounds, and textures of the natural world. After an exciting day exploring the zoo, kick back, relax and listen to original animal tales at one of the Lilac Lounge’s calming Story Time sessions.

There will be brand new animal talks unveiled every day throughout the event to learn about one of the 400 species cared for at London Zoo.
