About this Event

On 27 October 2026, join us at the Natural History Museum for a special live animal meet and greet. Come and discover a variety of curious creatures, both fluffy and scaly, as our visiting mobile zoo brings fascinating live animals for you to learn about and interact with. As this is a Halloween special, spiders will also feature as part of the experience.

Five 45-minute sessions will take place throughout the day, starting at 10.30am, 11.30am, 12.30pm, 2pm and 3pm. Please arrive five minutes before your chosen session to ensure a smooth start.

Suitable for ages 4 and over, this fun and educational event offers a unique opportunity to get up close to a range of remarkable animals and learn more about the natural world.
