Austin's Hologram Zoo Experience

Austin, a city that embraces innovation and creativity, is now home to Zoocade, the first augmented reality hologram zoo in the United States. The cutting-edge attraction is revolutionizing family entertainment by combining holographic technology with the wonder of wildlife encounters.

Where Technology Meets Wonder

At Zoocade, visitors embark on an extraordinary journey through three distinct holographic zoo experiences — Australia, Dinosaurs and Africa. Each adventure transports guests through a 60-foot holographic tunnel where majestic creatures come to life in stunning detail. Watch kangaroos hop across the Australian Outback, come face-to-face with a towering T. rex and witness the majesty of African lions and zebras roaming the savanna — all without cages, just cutting-edge holographic magic.

What makes Zoocade special is its interactive holographic rooms, where groups of four to five people enter 200-square-foot immersive environments designed for every age. Whether you're a curious toddler reaching out to touch a kangaroo or a grandparent marveling at prehistoric giants, the rooms create intimate, hands-on moments with virtual wildlife that would be impossible in traditional settings. The interactive technology responds to movement and gestures, making each visitor feel like they're truly part of the animal kingdom.
