Columbus Zoo and Aquarium August Hours: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
At the Columbus Zoo, animal wellbeing comes first. Many animals have access to both indoor and outdoor spaces, and during hot days, they may choose the comfort of air conditioning indoors. Some indoor areas are behind the scenes and not viewable to guests, but we encourage you to circle back later, as animals often move throughout the day.
