Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update
Ballarat Wildlife Park is looking forward to welcoming back guests from 1 June 2020
Thank you to everyone that has enquired about our reopening, and thank you all for your patience while we have taken the time to review our safety processes across the park in anticipation for reopening.
To ensure safety for visitors, staff and volunteers we have developed a comprehensive plan which includes increased sanitisation efforts, alterations to our cafe service, physical distancing measures, sanitiser dispensers and some areas will have reduced or no access.
We will continue to revisit our plans and update accordingly with changes to government guidelines. Please ensure to check our website before you visit to ensure you know what to expect at that time.
Some important things to note:
The cafe will be open for takeaway only
Indoor areas will have signs on entry advising capacity limits
Reptile house, Tiger precinct and Koala boardwalk will be ‘one-way’ only
The play area near the penguin enclosure will be closed
Presentations and tours will not be running until further notice
The Park will conduct scheduled sanitising throughout the day of common facilities
Visitors that are feeling unwell / presenting with COVID-19 symptoms are kindly requested to delay their visit until they are sure they are healthy and safe to visit
‘We hope visiting the Park gives you some respite from the time spent in isolation, we know our animals will be thrilled to see you all again soon!’
About Us
