Giraffes returned to Blackpool Zoo in 2008 with the launch of Giraffe Heights, which is home to our two female giraffes, O'Grady and Olympia.
Work is currently well underway to triple the size of the external habitat as part of a half-a-million-pound improvement programme.
The facility, which is set to open in time for Easter 2026, will feature African savannah soundscapes, safari-style lookout points, education trails and animal encounters. Accessible raised walkways will put visitors at eye level with the giraffes as they roam around their new savannah-style surroundings.
For those looking for something extra special, you’ll be able to step onto our VIP feeding platform and come face-to-face with the world’s tallest animal as you enjoy the unforgettable opportunity to feed the giraffes* with some of their favourite browse, an experience not to be missed!
At the opposite end of the paddock, a newly completed antelope stable will soon welcome our sitatunga herd, another species hailing from Africa
