Wake to the sounds of the Zoo at the wildest slumber party around!

Your wildlife adventure continues with breakfast, an opportunity to make close connections with some amazing Australian wildlife and a guided morning walk. You are then welcome to spend the rest of day exploring the Zoo.
After an Outback dinner you will head off on a night walk, led by a Zoo educator, to sneak a nocturnal peak at the animals. As a Roar & Snore camper, you'll sleep in a four-person tent (provided) pitched under the stars. You will rise to the warbles, rumbles, squeaks and growls of the animals greeting the day. Your wildlife adventure continues with breakfast before a two-hour behind-the-scenes walk. You are then welcome to spend the rest of day exploring the Zoo.
Roar & Snore is the ideal adventure for families, friends, social clubs, or employee training groups. In addition to our regular program we can offer our corporate clients access to training or lecture rooms (additional hire fees may apply).
Please note that all children must be over five years old to attend Roar & Snore. Roar & Snore is a non-smoking event.
