Meropa goes wild with new entertainment offering

The new and improved Wild Thingz and water park ideal to keep the family busy

After a 14-month renovation and investment of R2,5-million, Meropa Casino & Entertainment World is living up to its promise of being Limpopo’s all-in-one entertainment destination, with the newly-launched WildThingz Bird and Reptile Park, and an exciting water park.

The well-established Polokwane Pets & Hobbies store, owned by Andrew Fraser, has opened at Meropa to care for the birds and reptiles, which include both local and international species such as Rosy-faced and Fischer’s lovebirds, common parakeet, kakariki, bobwhite quail, Zebra doves and finches, Indian ring necks, red-and-green macaw and even adorable lemurs and the smallest fox, the Fennec. For those who enjoy admiring reptiles, there are yellow anaconda, Honduran milk snake, Eastern Chain Kingsnake, red-tailed boa, various types of pythons and Butterfly lizards. 

Wild Thingz is open Tuesday to Sunday from 9am until 5pm, and offers daily snake shows and guided tours.

Other exciting new additions to Meropa include a 25m swimming pool offering water games such as pool basketball, water gun battles, freeze tag, airball, diving Olympics, belly flop contests and more. Trained lifeguards are on duty whenever the pool is open.

“Even outside of the warmer months, Meropa now brings myriad exciting things to do to keep the whole family busy, from a trackless train, paddle cars, quad bikes, arcade games, pool table, table soccer and oversized chess. “Meropa is the ideal venue to host your child’s next birthday party,” said Meropa General Manager, Sammy Mokhele. “We are also eagerly anticipating the next school holiday period where we have an agenda for fun which includes sack races, PlayStation games, a tour of WildThingz with a snake show, tug of war, Jenga and even lunch for the kids.”

“As the heartbeat of Limpopo, Meropa’s entertainment offering is suited to more than just kid’s parties, with our new private gaming room and an upcoming renovation for our Salon Privé.,” Mokhele said. The recently launched Meropa Outdoor Arena on the lawns is the ideal venue for concerts and exhibitions and can take up to 4 000 people in standing area.

There is also a new coffee shop where guests can relax and enjoy refreshments and a light meal, as well as a sweet shop, party shop and a beachwear store.”
