Open Days

On a few special days each year we open the centre to allow for visitors to relax and spend an entire morning learning about our conservation work!

Experience a unique opportunity to spend a morning like no other at the Wild Cat Conservation Centre. Learn all about our critical conservation efforts here in Australia and around the world and get up close to some of the world’s most incredible wild cat species, all in one day!

You’ll encounter clouded leopards, as well as cheetahs, servals, and caracals. Witness the ground-breaking efforts of our cheetah conservation breeding program, the only one of its kind in Sydney, offering a glimpse of these animals in a truly wild-like state.

During our Open Days, you’ll have ample time to observe each of our unique cat species up close. Learn about the work we are doing here at the centre and around the world to assist in the conservation of wild cat species.

At the completion of your guided tour, you will relax in our picnic area. There, you’ll receive a personalised talk by our Director and Founder, Ben Britton. Hear first-hand about the inspiring background of our centre and the ongoing conservation efforts we undertake both in Australia and overseas.

To ensure an intimate and focused experience, our Open Days are strictly limited to only 24 guests, with a minimum age requirement of 14 years. You’ll have the privilege of spending 2 hours at our centre, from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm!
