Dublin Zoo Ticket Portal

Join us at Dublin Zoo on Saturday, August 29th, 2026, for a run like no other. This 3km fun run takes you through the Zoo before it opens, with participants starting and finishing inside the grounds and passing by incredible animals, such as rhinos, giraffes and lions. This year every ticket sold supports Save the Rhino International, helping to protect rhinos around the world. All tickets include a Run for Wildlife t-shirt, and a handmade medal with a real conservation story! Plus, your ticket includes complementary entry to the Zoo for the rest of the day, so you can explore and enjoy everything on offer. Book now to take advantage of early bird offers and be part of something truly special!
