A website is essential for a zoo, offering visitors key information and playing a crucial role in spreading knowledge and providing enriching experiences. Our Zoo’s official website has been publicly available since 1995. Until last year, the website operated with the design created in 2013. Since July 2024, the site has been available with a completely new and enhanced design, incorporating modern technical solutions and offering full responsiveness across various devices.

As a result of the development, the Budapest Zoo’s primary online platform now functions as a digital centre, meeting current standards. It enables effective monitoring, supports efficient communication with both domestic and international audiences, ensures transparent product displays, and allows for targeted audience engagement. The updated, user-friendly site is packed with a clear knowledge base, fun facts, and zoo secrets that make browsing easy and exciting.

It features the latest news and events at the Zoo, with dedicated sections highlighting the institution’s conservation and educational efforts. The website provides all the essential information to plan your visit to the Zoo.

Last year, our redesigned website was featured in three categories at the Website of the Year 2024 competition, organized by the Hungarian Marketing Association, marking the competition’s 23rd edition. This year, the competition was tougher than ever, with a record 329 excellent websites entering the contest. It is a great honour and an important recognition for us that our website was shortlisted by the expert jury in the Education category and received special awards in the Culture and Tourism categories as well.
