ZooLights

Wednesdays–Sundays, November 28–December 30

6 to 8:30 p.m.

This holiday season, FONZ will hold its biggest and brightest event ever—ZooLights, powered by Pepco. Beginning November 28, the Zoo will shine with thousands of environmentally friendly lights and animated exhibits for 25 nights. These larger-than-life displays will feature many of the Zoo’s most popular animals, all constructed of LED lights that use about 90 percent less energy than traditional incandescent light bulbs.

ZooLights will also offer visitors the chance to make fun, winter-themed crafts and bird feeders, roast marshmallows, sample other tasty treats like hot chocolate, cookies, and cider, meet keepers in some of our exhibits, and learn about the Zoo's enrichment efforts. But that’s not all. Ice sculpting demonstrations, choral groups, and storytellers will also abound at ZooLights. You can also sponsor a light display or special area of the Zoo.

Tickets are on sale now!
