Yes! Reservations are recommended for guests who want to participate in a baby alligator hatching experience during the Alligator Hatching Festival at Gatorama.

When you reserve in advance, you select your preferred hatch time and secure your spot for this hands-on experience. Because hatchings are limited and happen on nature’s schedule, availability can vary throughout the day.

If your preferred hatch time is sold out, we still encourage you to visit. Live alligator hatchings, feeding shows, and a full lineup of family-friendly experiences take place throughout the day, and additional opportunities may occasionally become available.

Booking early is the best way to guarantee your preferred time, especially during peak festival days.
