From $59pp

Kids' birthday groups can hire the Crikey Clubhouse treehouse for the day as a private base between animal shows.

Choosing an Animal Encounter

Wildlife group days in the hinterland are based at Beerwah, where Australia Zoo runs an events program on top of general entry. The same park serves very different groups, from ten children at a treehouse party to a company dinner beside the Crocoseum.

Who books the Beerwah zoo, and for what:

Families: the Crikey Clubhouse treehouse, three storeys high with its own slide, takes ten kids aged 14 or under plus ten adults for a full day.
Workplaces: packages run from early-entry breakfasts for 50 or more to cocktails and canapés in the evening.
Teams: the app-based Wildlife Hustle gives groups of 10 to 1,000 a competitive game around the park.
End-of-year groups: a daytime BBQ with team-building, or a festive dinner after dark.
Price guide: group options start from $59 per person.

Sunshine Coast Hinterland Wildlife & Nature Experiences

The Crikey Clubhouse has sheltered picnic tables, and families can carry in a picnic and birthday cake or order catering.
On the family fun day, an Aussie BBQ is served and the group watches the Wildlife Warriors Show.
An evening dinner of two courses facing the arena gives a work group a more formal night.
Conference rooms for up to 50 let a team mix a meeting with time among the animals.

Getting closer to the animals as a group

Guided caddie tours move a group around the grounds.
Back-of-house tours reach parts of the zoo a general visit misses.
The wildlife hospital has an area where guests can watch the care work.
General hours are 9am to 5pm daily, so plan daytime tours inside them.
