New for 2026 — Daytime Saturdays!
Oct. 16-17 and Oct. 23-24
It’s Halloween time at the Zoo! Join us for Boo at the Zoo, now featuring a new daytime experience on Saturdays! Enjoy not-so-scary family-friendly activities including a trick-or-treat trail (all day!), pumpkin animal enrichment, dazzling light shows, live entertainment, pumpkin-carving demonstrations, and more. All ghosts and goblins (and their parents) are encouraged to come in costume.
Tickets on sale soon!
Boo at the Zoo will take place during the next phase of the Front Entry Reconfiguration project. To help us manage the popularity of the event, guest safety, and traffic flow, Boo has been extended to the daytime on both Saturdays! Enjoy the Zoo, animals, and festive experience for just the special event admission fee on Saturdays, October 17 & 24.
Boo at the Zoo admission is the only valid ticket for Saturdays October 17 & 24, and tickets will only be available online. General admission and Zoo Pass Membership is not valid on those days. Zoo Pass Members receive 15% off Boo at the Zoo admission, as well as an exclusive, members-only activity during the event.
Boo at the Zoo directly supports the Zoo, the animals in our care, and our conservation work.
