Overview

The National Zoo and Aquarium celebrates Greek National Day all weekend with Greek inspired food, activities and heaps of fun. Take your littles explorers on a journey through the zoo as you learn about beasts and monsters from Greek Mythology. The Rhino Bistro will be serving classic Greek fare that will be sure to be a hit with the whole family whilst everyone prepares to participate in activities in our Viewing Park celebrating the Olympic Games! Kick back as you listen to some traditional Greek Music from Stratos Gianakakis, Canberra's premier Bouzouki player and wedding specialist and take a happy snap with the roving mascots as they get into the spirit. Canberra's Centre of Adventure has never been more fun.
