The official ticketing website has an English version. Prices are in euros only.

💸 How to pay less
The dated online ticket is always the starting point. Then, depending on your plans: flash sales, hotel package offers, or the two-day ticket if you are staying nearby.
There are no concessions for students, seniors or large families. Only visitors with disabilities get a reduced rate.

📅 One-day or two-day ticket?
The ZooParc covers 46 hectares and 24 territories. One day lets you see the highlights if you are well organised, but at a brisk pace. Two days is the ideal rhythm.
- The two-day dated ticket works out at €31.50 per day per adult (from €63), cheaper than two one-day tickets.
- The two days must be consecutive: you just choose the date of the first day.
- The two shows (included) run from late March to mid-November, so you can see them on both days.
