What is a Hologram Zoo?

Starting at $19.95

Looking for a fun, different & unique indoor experience in Austin, TX? Our hologram zoo is just like a normal zoo except all the animals are hologram projections made out of laser light that you can see using 3D glasses. Adventure in these new hi tech hologram tunnels where the animals come off the walls and fly around in the air with you. There are different shows where you go to different countries like Africa, the North Pole, to see Santa and Asia, and you can go back in time and visit the Dinosaurs. Each show goes for around 30 minutes. At the end, you'll get a small cardboard holographic-style gift to take home with you.

Hologram Zoo FAQs

The Hologram Zoo is a timed, scheduled experience — we recommend booking in advance, especially on weekends and during summer. Walk-ins are welcome but availability is not guaranteed. Book online through our reservations page to secure your preferred time slot.

Each show has approximately 30 minutes of content. After the experience, there’s a group photo opportunity and free keepsake (about 10–15 minutes). Plan for 45 minutes total for a single zoo visit, or up to 2–3 hours if you add Hologram Rooms, Verse Immersive, or time in the arcade.

Hologram Zoo tickets start at $19.95. Children under 3 are free. Pricing may vary by theme, day, and group size. Check our booking page for current pricing and availability. Group rates and private event packages are also available — contact us at 512-351-7312 or info@zoocade.com for details.

There is no violence, no animals dying, and nothing gory. However, holographic animals do appear suddenly and move toward you, which can be surprising. Most children find it exciting rather than frightening, but very young or sensitive children may be startled. If your child is easily scared by sudden surprises, let our staff know and we’ll help prepare them.

The Hologram Zoo is designed to delight guests of all ages, but adults visiting without kids tend to get the most out of our other experiences. We’d recommend checking out Verse Immersive — our augmented reality theater — or heading next door to VieVR for one of their guided 40+ minute expeditions to ancient Egypt or prehistoric Earth. Both are immersive, sophisticated experiences that consistently wow adult guests. The Hologram Zoo is still worth a peek, but if you’re an adult looking for the full wow factor, Verse and VieVR are where we’d point you first.

No — the Hologram Zoo is not virtual reality and does not use a VR headset. You wear 3D glasses (similar to movie theater glasses) that allow you to see the holographic animals. Because you’re not wearing a headset and can see your real surroundings, there is no motion sickness. The experience is fully accessible and comfortable for guests of all ages.

Yes — the Hologram Zoo is fully wheelchair accessible. We’re located in a shopping center with accessible parking and restrooms nearby. If you have specific accessibility needs, call us at 512-351-7312 before your visit and we’ll make sure everything is ready for you.

The Hologram Zoo is appropriate for ages 5 and up. Children under 3 are free and do not need a ticket, though you should be prepared to carry them as some areas can be a bit dark. Kids need to be comfortable wearing 3D glasses to experience the full effect. Holographic animals do appear suddenly throughout the experience, which some very young or sensitive children may find startling — though there is no violence or animals dying.

The Hologram Zoo is a walk-through experience where laser-powered holographic animals and environments appear to float in the air around you. You put on 3D glasses (provided) and walk through high-tech hologram tunnels where animals seem to come off the walls and move through the space around you. It’s not virtual reality — you’re in a real room with real people. Each show runs approximately 30 minutes and ends with a group photo opportunity and a holographic-style keepsake to take home.

Zoocade offers multiple Hologram Zoo themes including Africa, Space 3D, Dinosaurs, Arctic, Australia, and seasonal experiences like Christmas and Halloween. Themes rotate throughout the year. Check our booking page for which themes are currently available when you plan to visit.
