Trick or treat with the animals!
Saturdays and Sundays, Starting October 14
Join us for a "kooky-not-spooky" daytime Halloween celebration. The zoo transforms into a hauntingly fun destination for the whole family with trick-or-treat stations, creepy crawly animal encounters, keeper chats, games, activities, photo ops and costume parade! So, wear your costumes and bring your treat bags for this fall-favorite event!
Themed Weekends:
October 14-15: Superheros
October 21-22: Witches and Wizards
October 28-29: Your Favorite Movie or TV Characters
Enjoy a “sleepy hollow” experience at the zoo with a Spooky Stroll through the Wildlife Trail.
Mysterious fog and eerie music spill over our decorated trail, giving a unique Halloween feel to visitors without being too scary for the little ones. A trick-or-treating station in the Animal Health Center will have a photo op where Zoo Boo participants can pose for photos.
