Good news! Mumbai's Byculla Zoo to remain open on Ganesh Chaturthi

In a convenient shift for holiday planners, Mumbai’s Veermata Jijabai Bhosale Botanical Garden and Zoo (Byculla Zoo) will remain open this Wednesday, August 27, despite it being Ganesh Chaturthi. The zoo will instead observe its weekly closure on Thursday, August 28.

This shift is due to a BMC policy that keeps the zoo open if a public holiday falls on its regular weekly closing day (Wednesday). The decision offers families a perfect opportunity to enjoy a unique outing during the festive break. So, if you're looking for a fun-filled activity this Ganesh Chaturthi, the zoo is ready to welcome visitors.
