CHILDREN'S BIRTHDAY PARTIES
Orana is a great place to hold a fun children's birthday event! Be sure to make the most of the day by following the animal presentation schedule (hand-feeding giraffes is a must!). Visitors are welcome to utilise the fabulous cafe or bring their own food to eat at one of the many scenic picnic spots around the Park. There are two main picnic areas, one infront of the Rhinos and one opposite the Zebra. The barbecues are free to operate.
As an open-range zoo, Orana is very much an outdoor activity so please plan according to the weather. Please note: the Café's indoor seating is relatively limited, therefore tables cannot be reserved but ample outdoor seating surrounds the Café. Currently the Function Centre is not available for children's birthday parties.
