Personal Parties

Want to party with a bunch of animals?

Look no further than Urban Safari Rescue Society!

Invite some amazing critters to your birthday for a party your guests will never forget!

We provide a home and care for rescued exotic animals. Booking an animal birthday party helps support and care for these amazing creatures.

Presented by a trained animal educator, we will introduce your guests to exotic insects, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. We give you an opportunity for an ‘up close’ experience with various species from around the world. 

Animals that could come to your party : Exotic insects, spiders, snakes, lizards, turtles or tortoises. We can also bring Guinea Pig, or Hairless Guinea Pig ( Skinny Pig ) if requested.  Sometimes an animal isn’t ready for a party, due to shedding or other causes, so we may need to substitute a different animal. Please understand it is for the health of the animal and it is at our discretion.

Virtual Parties

During the Covid pandemic, we are now offering virtual animal birthday parties via Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams in a private, interactive fun and educational experience. We have done these all over BC, Alberta, Ontario, USA, Australia, and parts of Asia. We can do one for you too! 

Cost for an online presentation: $140 + GST

In-person Parties

We are also doing in-person presentations for birthdays. Currently there are some Covid protocols we need to follow. The party must be in a large space such as a community centre multi-purpose room, common room for a townhouse or strata complex, church hall, school gym etc.  Everyone must be at least 6 feet away from us at all times.

Party at Your Place

15 or more exotic insects, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals show up at your animal birthday party to wow and amaze your friends and family. They will bring one of our trained animal educators (yes, they train humans) with them who do a live animal show, lead you through fun interactive activities and answer your questions. 

You will get an up close and personal experience with various animals from around the world during an hour long live exotic animal presentation

Would you like to meet a special someone? Just ask. We will try to accommodate special requests, as long as the creature in question is willing and able to make an appearance.

Our exotic animal show for birthday parties are fun and educational–a family adventure no one will forget!!

Just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed your presentation at my son’s fourth bday party on Sunday. The kids were so excited and fully captivated for the full hour— pretty impressive given that the room was full of three and four year olds.  You also did such an amazing job of making the BDay boy feel extra special. An amazing experience and one we will highly recommend and always remember.

What an incredible experience for all of my daughters 17 guests… and myself! To handle that many children could be difficult, but the presenters commanded the children’s attention ... by engaging and peaking their interest in the critters and asking them questions, or telling a cool fact ... Kids loved the huge fluffy bunny and the icky bugs too. Well done USRS!!! You have put together a great show and … it “shows”!

... thank you so much for the fun and educational experience for Charlie’s 5th birthday. The children and adults alike had a fabulous time and everyone is raving about it. I will be encouraging everyone I know to have Urban Safari parties for all occasions. We will have many special memories from that day for years to come. Especially Grandma with tarantulas on her body!!

... As an avid animal lover, and former owner of snakes and other lizards, I genuinely appreciated the respect you showed not only to the animals, but also that you taught to the kids. I think you do a great job of balancing the experience for the kids, and I think many of them have never had an opportunity see creatures in such a close setting, which helps shape how they feel about them ... The kids were so excited to tell their parents about what they saw and did, it really created a unique party setting for them ...
