Plan your visit
- Practical notes
- The programme is outdoors on the square by Korkeasaari tram stop, in front of the zoo entrance. Normal HSL ticket rules apply to tram journeys; the opening does not mean free rides. Visiting the zoo is a separate paid outing.
- Schedule notes
- The official opening is 9–10. The first tram crosses the bridge at 10, followed by family music from 10–11. Costumed animal characters are on the square from 9–12, so the overall event window continues until noon.
- Booking notes
- Registration or booking requirements are not stated. Check participation arrangements on the organiser’s programme page.
- Price notes
- Any admission charge for the opening programme on the square is not stated. Tram fares and zoo admission are separate.
- Age notes
- The music programme is for the whole family. No specific age recommendation or programme languages are stated.
