Banham Zoo

Banham Zoo, Kenninghall Rd, Banham Norwich, NR16 2HE

Part of the Zoological Society of East Anglia, Banham Zoo is the perfect place to connect with nature.

With hundreds of animals from around the world, set in over 50 acres of beautiful open parkland and gardens, there will be hours of fun for everyone.

Enjoy a full day out with plenty of activities to thrill and entertain your family, all whilst learning more about the conservation of some incredible species – from snow leopards and Russian tigers to more familiar animals found in our own British wildlife.

Head to the Farm Barn to get up close and personal with some of our friendly farm animals, or step inside the wonderful world of our Tropical House, where you’ll find free-flying birds, two-toed Linnes sloth and exotic plants from across South America.

Join us for our daily animal talks, ongoing seasonal events, and interactive sessions in our Discovery Centre to get up close and face-to-face with animals.

At feeding time, head to one of our restaurants or kiosks, where you’ll find lots of tasty treats to enjoy, setting you up for the rest of your day!

At ZSEA, we can provide an alternative to the conventional corporate setting by catering for all of your corporate event needs. Educational visits and Sponsorship opportunities are always welcomed at Banham Zoo as we continue to grow as a charity and look to the future.

Annual memberships for both individuals & corporate, for the combined ZSEA zoos are also available with unlimited yearly access & exclusive member events.

Book your tickets online now and start creating memories with Banham Zoo.
