Pretoria Zoo

Children's Parties at the Pretoria Zoo. Why not bring the kids to the National Zoo for their next birthday? Wild animals, crocodiles, vultures, snakes, giraffes, tigers, elephants, sharks, there's something for everyone!

Whether you set up in the picnic area or hire one of two venues, you'll spend the day surrounded by beautiful gardens and the sounds of nature.

The National Zoo provides party packs, which can be tailor made to suit your needs and budget. They can even provide that animal themed cake you need. Party packs include masks, pictures to colour in, sweets, drinks, etc.

As consideration for our animals health and safety we do not allow balloons, jumping castles or noisy toys on the premises.

Please book your venue and place orders at least one week prior to date of party.
