What to expect on your day at the zoo
Experience an exciting day at the Hologram zoo with activities that you and your family can enjoy!
Begin your adventure with the 20 metre holographic tunnel experience where you traverse five different animal’s Habitats. The animals will come out of the walls and float right in front of you, so close in fact, that you can reach out and have your hand pass right through them! It is a magical, immersive experience that is not to be missed.
Once you have completed one of your tunnel walks, you will walk over to the fenced holographic enclosures where the animals project from the ground below you. There are 10 fenced animals to see up close in the Holographic enclosures and you will see 2 fenced animals per walk through. This is a fascinating exhibit as you get to see the animals from a perspective that not many people get to experience.
From the Enclosures, you will head over to the new holographic skyroof experience where you will shrink down to the size of an ant and watch as the animals walk across the glass above you. There are five skyroof experiences total, so you will see one sky roof animal per walk through. This experience is wonderful as the animals are much larger than their real life counterparts.
Once you have finished the skyroof, you will be back at the tunnel to complete your second circuit. Once you have finished your experience, you can marvel at the holographic bridge, where giant animals appear before you at a never before seen scale. The bridge chooses 4 animals to showcase per day so you will see new creatures every visit!
Hungry? Visit the Rainforest Restaurant where you can sit, relax and enjoy the holographic rainforest creatures. You will see chameleons and even toucans interacting in the environment. The restaurant also has gluten free and vegan options available.
Experiences of the Hologram Zoo
The Hologram Zoo runs experiences a bit like how a museum runs their exhibitions, showcasing new and exotic locations at different times of the year to ensure every returning guest will experience something unique.
The zoo is offering an Africa experience starting on the 8th of April. See amazing creatures like gorillas and lions up close like never seen before in the Africa experience! You can even take a swim down the river, where elephants spray you with holographic water. Book ahead for this experience as it’s sure to sell out quickly!
The Dinosaur Experience will be available year round as an upgrade on top of the regular experience on offer for an extra $17.50 per person. You will feed a life sized Apatosaurus, face the monsters at the bottom of the Prehistoric oceans, fly with Pteradons over a waterfall and even try to escape the mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex!
There are many experiences planned throughout the year, so keep checking the Hologram Zoo website to see updates on what locations are available.
