So, what's the buzz around the construction going on at the Columbus Zoo? All good things! 

While we're enhancing habitats and areas around the Zoo, and ensuring guests have an amazing and safe experience for another 100 years, stay up-to-date on current projects you may see while visiting!

The Zoo Entrance is getting a makeover! 

Starting October 13, 2025, we'll begin replacing the existing timbers and overhead roof structure. Guests can find additional signage and stanchions as they enter and exit the Zoo. 

The nearby Zoo Marketplace will remain open.
