ZSL London Zoo, home to the famous annual Gay Sunday event, is also proud to offer the perfect location for a civil partnership.

Why not choose The Mappin Pavilion to say ‘I do’, followed by drinks and canapes in the Komodo Dragon & Galapagos Tortoise House, before returning to the Pavilion for a fork buffet, barbecue, or seated dinner.

Dancing is available here and in The Prince Albert Suite until midnight, with extensions until 2am for the nocturnals among you!

Receptions

Blackburn Pavilion
Blackburn Pavilion
Couples love to get married at ZSL London Zoo due to it's unique and fun setting, not to mention that all profits from the wedding go directly into helping critically endangered animals.

Nothing shows off our unusual venue like a reception in one of our Animal Houses ! These are available for 1.5 or 3 hours after the zoo closes, and can be booked individually or in conjunction with a suite where the ceremony would be held.

Don't forget that booking an live animal encounter to meet your guests is also a great way of adding value!
