Fire jugglers and various musical performances will entertain the audience at Main Gate Square.
Families with children should not miss the Schaftner Carousel and the Vurstli, where face and glitter painting as well as various animal craft workshops will be available. Keeping up with the latest trends, the zoo will also set up selfie and telescope booths.
