The weekly performances begin at 14:00, featuring familiar characters like Lilli Api who have entertained generations of young audiences. Because these Friday events are a popular draw for families, guests are encouraged to arrive early. Planning ahead allows visitors to explore the park's native wildlife, domestic animals, and play areas both before and after the show.
