Slither down to Dublin Zoo to celebrate St. Patricks Day!
Dublin Zoo is inviting visitors of all ages to celebrate St. Patricks Day in the Zoo, with a jam-packed schedule of fun and entertainment on Sunday, March 17th. Visitors will be greeted by a special Leprechaun upon arrival, who will be encouraging them to enter the ‘pot of gold’ competition and be in with a chance of winning an annual pass to Dublin Zoo!
In keeping with the theme, there will be a live band playing traditional music in the Meerkat Restaurant, where visitors can enjoy listening and dancing to their favourite Irish tunes.
Children’s entertainer Silly Billy will host two special themed Magic Shows during the afternoon, which is sure to appeal to younger visitors!
There will also be face-painting and themed arts & crafts activities taking place during the day. Whether you want to look like your favourite animal or sport a shamrock on your cheek, the talented face-painters have you covered!
