Hullabazoo Indoor Play

Whipsnade Zoo's indoor soft play area

Each element of Hullabazoo Indoor Play is designed around different habitats enabling your children to have fun and mimic their favourite animals. You’ll be able to watch your little ones crawl through the garden, climb like an insect or journey through the Antarctic to become a penguin sliding down the ice.

Our Hullabazoo indoor soft play area is located in our Hullabazoo Children's Farm (at the heart of the Zoo) and we have separate areas for under 3's and 3-10 years olds to allow everyone to play safely.

Entry to our indoor soft play area, Hullabazoo, is by pre-booking only. Hullabazoo Indoor Play tickets are free of charge with a valid membership or general admissions ticket and will only appear 24 hours in advance of your chosen slot.

To access your Exclusive Gold Member/Fellow/Patron Hullabazoo Indoor Play session, please enter the primary member CRM ID into the Offer Box at the start of the booking journey. You can find your membership CRM ID on your membership card – it's the up to 7-digit number on the back. Should that ID return an error message, it might not be the correct ID, in which case we’re encouraging you to try the CRM ID of other members of your membership.

We are trialing relaxed sessions for those with additional needs. These run at 9.30am weekend days only. Please see our accessibility page and click the accessible activities and relaxed openings tab for further details and to book.

We also offer relaxed sessions in Hullabazoo, our indoor soft play. These sessions have a reduced capacity and no music to make for a relaxed atmosphere for those with additional needs who will benefit from a quieter and calmer atmosphere.

Sessions are free to book, but valid ZSL membership or Zoo entry tickets must be held to allow entry to the Zoo.

These sessions are currently being offered at weekends, 9.30-10.15am. Sessions will be released 24 hours in advance of their start time and can be booked below. By booking one of these sessions you will be allowed access to Hullabazoo at 9.30am, but will not be able to access the rest of the Zoo until 10am
