Come and explore one of Edmonton's premier attractions!
The Edmonton Valley Zoo is home to more than 350 animals, focused on conservation, and offers fun and education for the whole family.
Book your timed entry online or drop in and pay your admission at the front counter. Reserving in advance will guarantee admission and avoid line-ups. Children ages 13 and under must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
The following activities are currently not available.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) confirmed the presence of a highly pathogenic strain of avian flu in Alberta. The health and well-being of our animals are our top priority. We made the difficult but necessary decision to move all of our birds off exhibit until further notice. The Urban Farm is open with non-avian animals.
The last admission window is 8-8:30pm. The zoo will begin closing at 9:30pm and will be cleared at 10pm.
Hours are effective December 2-18.
Please reserve your spot before your visit!
