Chester Zoo has opened bookings for its new wedding and events venue, The Square, which is set to open this spring.
The luxury 200-capacity destination, due to open in May, is an extension of an existing Grade II listed stable block that has stood at the heart of the 128-acre conservation zoo since it opened in 1931. The original structures were once home to some of the zoo’s first animals such as lions, bears and chimpanzees.
For the first time, following a three-year restoration project, the historical building will soon be hosting special occasions. Couples able to tie the knot surrounded by 27,000 animals. The venue will also host corporate events and offer unique meeting spaces.
