The Dancing Horses Theatre and Animal Gardens Petting Zoo

The Animal Gardens is a 40-acre venue which serves as home to The Dancing Horses Theatre. There are over 200 animals, 16 species of exotics and over 60 hay-eating animals.

This park is located in Delavan, just 10 minutes west of downtown Lake Geneva and has an interactive Baby Animal Barn where you can pet, hold and feed exotic and farm animal babies. There's a kitten room with adorable cats that you can interact with. It's amazing! Then, roam or ride the trails which will guide you to several exhibits including the Wildlife Exhibit where you can hand-feed deer.

Animal Gardens is open between May 1 and Oct. 31 and closed on Mondays. While you're there, don't forget to visit the year-round attractions: The Dancing Horses Theatre for a live equestrian show.

Celebrate a birthday with a Dancing Horses Pony Party that includes the Dancing Horses show, a VIP party room, rides, and the Animal Gardens Petting Zoo (May – Oct.) with the Baby Barn experience.
