The highly anticipated 10-acre Journey to Churchill Exhibit at Assiniboine Park Zoo is now open to the public.
The exhibit features expansive new habitats for polar bears, arctic foxes, muskox, snowy owls and seals. It also features an eight minute film experience inside Manitoba’s largest 360-degree theatre. There’s a lot of interactive elements in the exhibit plus an incredible underwater viewing tunnel that will showcase swimming polar bears!
A large line up of visitors are expected this weekend. Visitors are encouraged to purchase their tickets at a new online sales window at assiniboineparkzoo.ca.
General Adult admission has gone up from $10.24 to $18.50. However, to make the Zoo an accessible destination for all Manitobans, they’ve introduced new group discounts and bulk rates. On top of that, they’ve introduced Ten-Dollar Tuesdays where anyone can come to the Zoo for only $10. The free admission age has been moved from under two to under three.
