Upcoming Events

Red Panda Weekend - Saturday 19 September 2026 to Sunday 20 September 2026

Celebrate International Red Panda Day at Paradise Park Wildlife Sanctuary as they  welcome two new Red Pandas, Freyja and Rollo, and shine a spotlight on the much-loved resident Jai-Li.

To celebrate, they are holding a ‘Red Panda Weekend’ on Saturday 19 September and Sunday 20 September. Visitors can claim £2 off single tickets by using code REDPANDA online or at reception on arrival.
 

  • Children visiting over the weekend will also receive a FREE Red Panda badge, a fun fact sheet and a colouring sheet.
  • There will be a special Keeper Red Panda talk on both days at 12:15pm.

They are home to three red pandas. The lovely resident Jai-Li, who is now 15 years old, and two new arrivals! Freyja, a young female born on 5 July 2025 at Copenhagen Zoo in Denmark and her companion, Rollo, on 20th June 2025 at Chateau de la Bourbansais in France.

They have been allocated to Paradise Park through the coordinated breeding programme for this endangered species. Red pandas are fairly solitary in the wild but after just a few hours they can see they are curious about each other. Fingers crossed, they hope to hear the patter of tiny Red Panda feet sometime next year.
