Please be aware parking in the Zoo’s main car park is significantly reduced due to ongoing third party works and will be restricted further between 16 September to 18 October 2018 due to the annual Frieze Art Fair. Unfortunately we cannot guarantee any space will be available during this time and we strongly advise travelling to the Zoo via public transport. Find more information regarding nearest stations and bus routes on our Directions Page.
If you’re unable to park in the Zoo’s car park, there is some on-street parking available on the main road. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you in advance for your patience.
Due to the works being undertaken we regret to inform you that we are no longer able to offer parking for coaches and can only offer drop off facilities, which will be completely suspended between 16 September and 18 October 2018.
Parking for Zoo visitors is available in the Zoo's Gloucester Slips Car Park and is payable on the day.
The Zoo's Main Gate is situated on the Outer Circle of Regent's Park NW1, which is outside of the congestion charge zone.

Due to works being undertaken by Thames Water and HS2, we regret to inform you that the car park is now reduced in size and we can no longer offer parking for coaches. There are coach drop-off spaces but once groups have disembarked, parking will need to be found off site. We also have plans to make the car park as flexible as possible so we can respond quickly to fluctuating demand for cars and coaches.
Transport for London’s latest coach parking information is available at https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/coach-drivers/
If your groups have specific access needs, we will do our best to accommodate coach parking in the ZSL London Zoo car park. Please contact our Supporter Services team as far in advance as possible to discuss your requirements and secure a place: generalenquiries@zsl.org or 0344 225 1826.
