Whatever the occasion, we have the perfect space for your next event. Whether you're looking for views of Central Ohio's only African wildlife savanna in our Heart of Africa region, intimate underwater dining in our 360-degree acrylic sea lion tunnel, or waterfront sunsets at the Water's Edge Boardwalk, the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium has a venue for you.
We have beautiful naturalistic settings that are perfect for both outdoor and indoor ceremonies. Our banquet and catering facilities provide both elegant surroundings and outstanding service for unforgettable, worry-free receptions.
The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium offers a unique out-of-office experience. Our team building exercise encourages your teams to travel throughout the seven regions of the Zoo, searching for answers to clues and snapping pictures as they compete.
