Online Booking Mandatory
Visitors must book tickets online in advance through the zoo’s official portal, tickets.aazp.in, as walk-in purchases will not be permitted on both days. To manage footfall, entry has been divided into two time slots, morning and afternoon, with 10,000 tickets allocated to each.

The zoo will operate from 8.30am to 5pm, with entry permitted until 4.30pm. All charges beyond entry, including attractions listed under the standard tariff, remain applicable. Battery-operated vehicle services for the zoo circuit, as well as the lion and deer safari, will be suspended on both days.
