It’s the 30th anniversary of Zoo Boo!! If you’ve never gone before, or if you just haven’t gotten a chance to go yet this year, it’s the perfect weekend to check it out!! Zoo Boo is one of my favorite events to attend each year as a family & I highly recommend it. Visit this Friday from 4:00pm to 8:00pm or Saturday from 2:00pm to 7:00pm.
North Shore Bank Zoo Boo is full of the wholesome Halloween fun. Adults and kids alike are encouraged to wear your costumes and bring your trick-or-treat bags to collect candy as you stop at the many Treat and Activity Stations around the Zoo. Kids can play games and spend some time in the bounce house before or after you see the animals and enjoy all the spooktacular, family-friendly decorations. In fact, North Shore Bank Zoo Boo features the largest collection of skeleton scene displays in the area! While you’re looking at the decorations, you’ll want to play the Zoo Boo Skeleton Safari game to find our fan-favorite skeletons (like Scuba Steve and Billy the Skeleton!) making mischief around the zoo. Complete the scavenger hunt, then stop by the Prize Table before you leave so kids can choose a prize just for playing. Of course, for the bravest zoo guests – you’ll want to take a walk through the newly-expanded Haunted Zoo Zone – if you dare!
Tickets for North Shore Bank Zoo Boo are $15 each (kids under 3 are free) or $20 each for a Zoo Boo + Canopy Tour Combo Ticket to enjoy all the fun of Zoo Boo PLUS a walk on the Neil Anderson Canopy Tour, where you can enjoy even more decorations and Halloween-themed fun! Zoo gates close 30 minutes prior to the event end time and the Canopy Tour’s last departure will be at 7:00 p.m. on Fridays and 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays, so plan ahead to give yourself enough time to enjoy both experiences!
