More About Boo at the Washington Park Zoo

Spooktacular Halloween fun at the Washington Park Zoo

Get your costumes together and register early to secure your spot at this year's Boo at the Zoo.

Your little ghosts and goblins will sink their fangs into goodies from community-based Trick-or-Treat stations spread throughout the Zoo, while also having an eerie-sistible time with a wide range of activities, including photo opportunities, spooky props, and BOO-themed animal enrichment.

Regular Admission will apply:

Tickets are $12.00 for Adults, $10.00 for a Child (11-2 yrs), and infants under 1 yr are free but will require a ticket or an Eventbrite reservation to participate in the trick-or-treating.

Gates open from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Advance tickets are recommended due to limited supply and tickets are non-refundable. If you are unable to attend, your ticket purchase will be considered a donation to the zoo. Tickets can be purchased on Eventbrite or picked up at the Zoo office while supplies last for quicker entry.

Please dress for the weather. Like Halloween, this is a Rain or Shine event unless severe weather is forecasted. In the event that severe weather causes the Zoo to cancel the event, then a full refund or day pass will be issued for purchased tickets only.
