70 magical displays and over half a million lights
Every holiday season, we transform the Zoo into a winter wonderland. This year is extra-special because we're celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Zoolights! Come see beluga whales, elephants, owls, reindeer, dinosaurs, and other dazzling attractions during this one-of-a-kind event.
Bring your camera so you can capture the breathtaking commemorative coral wreath. Featuring underwater creatures aglow with lights, the wreath is so big you can stand inside of it. Another special display: a twinkling replica of the new Tacoma Narrows Bridge.
Bundle up and join the fun:
- Enjoy live entertainment, holiday music and refreshments as you stroll the Zoo
- Feed goats and sheep in the Kids' Zone, and visit the aquariums. Please note that the upper level of the North Pacific Aquarium will be closed most Friday and Saturday nights for private events.
- Take a ride on the Paul Titus Carousel
- Shop for holiday gifts
