The List

Drusillas Park

Make memories that last and enjoy a great family day out at the award-winning Drusillas Park. Drusillas offers a loving home to over one hundred exotic animals, including sloths, meerkats, monkeys, penguins, red pandas, giant anteaters and more! However, animals are only half the fun! Make like a monkey and swing, jump and climb your way across Drusillas large adventure play areas, get lost in Mungo’s Maze, tiptoe through the jaws of a T-Rex in Jurassic Jungle, and take to the skies on a whole host of amazing children’s rides including the Hippopotobus, the Flying Cheetahs and the Rainforest Carousel. There’s even a chance to grab your swimming costume and splash about on the Get Wet! splash pad. When you fancy a break from all the running around, sit back and relax as you journey deep into the heart of the zoo on the Safari Express train. NEW at Drusillas- SPARK- the UK’s largest immersive play experience. See little eyes marvel in wonder as they discover a magical world where reality and technology collide, in an explosion of colour and light. Watch curious minds explore SPARK’s nine interactive games. Open at weekends and East Sussex school holidays. There is a small additional charge to experience SPARK and pre-booking is advised. Drusillas also offers great disabled access and recently opened a Changing Places toilet as well as supporting the Sunflower Lanyard hidden disabilities scheme. For full details regarding accessibility please view the access statement on the Drusillas website. Drusillas are champions for conservation and as part of their Conservation in Action programme they are currently fundraising for and supporting The Sloth Conservation Foundation. Have a wonderfully exciting day out that all the family will remember.
