Exciting new developments taking place in 2024!
Winter is always one of the busiest times of the year for our Maintenance Team and this year it is no different. Our team are hard at work behind the scenes as we prepare to make improvements to various locations in the park this January. Winter is the ideal time of year for us to carry out vital upgrades within the park without majorly impacting our visitor’s experience.
It is important that we carry out these vital upgrades to ensure that the facilities for our animals is up to the highest standard as well as to continue to provide a first-class experience for our visitors.
During January we are aware that the weather can affect visits and whilst we have a number of improvements underway, we are pleased to be able to offer visitors our ever-popular January Blues offer where you can enjoy the Zoo for less.
Grab your wellies, coats and scarves and enjoy a cosy day out at the Zoo this winter with the whole family! Experience a crisp day out with tickets from just £10 per person. This offer provides unbeatable value for money! Find out more about our offer here.
You can support Colchester Zoo further by purchasing a Zoo Pass which offers you amazing benefits as you can return as many times as you like all year round to witness and enjoy the constant improvements plus take advantage of exclusive discounts!
Here’s a snapshot of some of the improvement work we plan to complete during 2024 plus a teaser of some exciting NEW developments…

Dinosaur Realm
Throughout the winter period, we have continued to work on our old display’s lawn turning the area into a DINO-MITE experience for all ages. Due to open in Spring 2024, our BRAND-NEW Dinosaur Realm area will include a Brachiosaurus that stands just under 5 metres tall. Keep up to date with the launch of this new area on social media.
