London, Ontario — Reptilia is proud to announce the official opening of Reptilia London, bringing one of Canada’s largest reptile zoo experiences to Southwestern Ontario.
Located at Westmount Mall, the new 28,000-square-foot indoor facility features hundreds of reptiles, amphibians, fish, and arachnids from around the world. Guests can explore immersive habitats, attend live educational presentations, experience up-close animal encounters, and discover the incredible diversity of some of Earth’s most fascinating wildlife.
After years of planning and construction, the opening marks an exciting milestone for Reptilia as it expands its mission of conservation, education, and wildlife appreciation with its third Ontario location. Reptilia London joins the organization’s Vaughan and Whitby facilities in providing immersive, educational experiences that inspire visitors of all ages.
“Opening Reptilia London has been an incredible milestone for our organization,” said Ryan Vince, General Manager of Reptilia. “We’ve created a destination where families can experience wildlife in a completely new way while learning about the importance of reptiles, amphibians, and conservation. We couldn’t be more excited to welcome the London community and visitors from across Southwestern Ontario.”
Opening weekend welcomed thousands of guests eager to experience the new facility’s expansive collection of reptiles and amphibians. Visitors can encounter massive pythons, Nile Crocodiles, giant tortoises, colourful frogs, giant freshwater fish, and hundreds of other remarkable species from around the globe.
In addition to self-guided admission, Reptilia London offers daily live animal presentations, private guided tours, birthday parties, school programs, seasonal camps, behind-the-scenes experiences, and special events throughout the year, making it one of Southwestern Ontario’s premier family attractions.
The opening of Reptilia London reflects the organization’s continued commitment to animal welfare, conservation, and education. Through engaging exhibits and interactive programming, Reptilia aims to inspire a lifelong appreciation for wildlife while helping dispel myths surrounding reptiles and amphibians.
Reptilia London is now open seven days a week and welcomes guests of all ages to experience one of Ontario’s newest and most exciting zoological destinations.
