Calgary's New Adorable Drive-Thru Zoo Is Free This Weekend

Llamas, horses, and goats, oh my! 🦙
Staff Writer

Not sure what to do once the week is done? Well, we found an event that is cuteness overload. Grab your car keys, as you'll definitely want to try it. Calgary Farmyard has a new drive-thru experience, and it is totally free this weekend.

It is happening Saturday, June 6 and Sunday, June 7, and you won't want to miss it. As part of the drive-thru tour, you'll get to see so many fluffy barnyard animals.

As it is spring, you can expect to see lots of fluffy baby animals. But Calgary Farmyard told Narcity their show stopper is the new tiny mule which was born not a week earlier.

Without a doubt, you'll get to see all your favourite critters. There will be llamas, alpacas, horses, cows, donkeys, pigs, rabbits, goats and more.

From start to finish, it will take approximately 25 minutes of pure joy.

The entire tour can be enjoyed from inside your vehicle. If you want, you can roll down your window to get a better photo.

You will also get an audio link file that you can listen to on your phone. The fun recording will teach you all about the animals you can see outside your window.

While the event is free, there is the option to donate to a local food bank.

You will need to get your ticket online, but only one is required per vehicle.

But the good news is you won't have to wait long to get in. Each ticket is for a specific 30 minute entry time.

Make sure to stop everything and claim your spot now. There are limited spots available, so get one today before they are all gone.

After Sunday, Calgary Farmyard will remain closed to the public. They hope to re-open to the public this summer, but no exact date has been set.
