‘Dreamnight’ is an enchanted after-hours evening event at Drusillas in Alfriston, East Sussex, packed full of fun, food and entertainment for families that might not be able to visit during normal opening hours.

Drusillas is not your average zoo – as well as housing a variety of different animals, it also caters for thrill-seekers with 10 rides and play activities including Jurassic Jungle and Amazon Adventure on offer.

Talking about the event, one family said: “Our kids totally lived in the moment and forgot about all the troubles our family have faced over the past few years. They felt so lucky to have been chosen to attend. Every single person at this event, went above and beyond to out a smile on everyone’s face. It ran so smoothly, and you could see the joy all around.’’

Ria and Megan who attended, said: “We are so thankful for this opportunity, I really wish I could find the right words to say how special she felt, and for us as a family to leave the worries at the door for a couple of hours.”

Another family added: “Not to be judged when my child has a meltdown, just to be able to relax and enjoy the day – thank you for the best evening! If only it could have been longer.”

‘’Nice to have a family evening out together with other families that didn’t take any notice of my daughter looking different. Really enjoyed the evening and a big thank you to you all.”

A big thank you to the team at Drusillas for giving our families some special memories to cherish forever.
