Can we combine the wreath workshop with zoo entry?

Yes. A wreath costs 350 Kč on its own, without zoo entry. The zoo also sells a 550 Kč package (one adult ticket plus a wreath) and a 1,000 Kč package (family ticket plus a wreath).

Is there a cheaper ticket for the tree lighting?

Yes. From 3:30 to 4:30pm on the lighting day, the main entrance ticket office sells zoo entry for 50 Kč. No other discounts apply to it.

Can we bring the dog?

Yes, on a leash and with a valid vaccination card, for 150 Kč. Dogs can't go into the pavilions, indoor restaurant areas or the Children's Zoo play area and farm.

About

Prague Zoo turns festive for the holiday season. Families can make an Advent wreath in the Education Center, join carols at the Christmas tree lighting in the Children's Zoo, and watch keepers hand unsold Christmas trees to the animals. Winter suits the reindeer, camels and Amur tiger in their thick coats, and fourteen heated pavilions offer a warm break between the outdoor paths.
