ZOO BOO is one of the best fall/Halloween events in the Green Bay area and is one of my favorite events to attend each year as a family. I highly recommend it if you’ve never gone before. It’s time to make this a fall family tradition!!
Celebrate the Halloween season at the NEW Zoo & Adventure Park on Fridays and Saturdays, October 17th, 18th, 24th, and 25th. It will take place on Fridays from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and on Saturdays from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
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 & 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 amazing 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 the Scary Fairy Queen and Terror Swift!) making mischief around the zoo. Also enjoy the 200+ carved pumpkins lining the zoo’s pathways as you complete the scavenger hunt. Then stop by the Prize Table before you leave so kids can choose a prize just for playing. For the bravest zoo guests – you’ll want to take a walk (or two or three!) through the Haunted Zoo Zone – if you dare!
Tickets are $15 each (kids under 3 are free) or for $20 each, you can get a Canopy Tour + Zoo Boo Combo Ticket and 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.
You can enter the Zoo anytime after the event begins, up until 30 minutes before closing time. Zoo Pass Members receive a 20% discount that will automatically apply to your online shopping cart when you’re logged into your membership account. Instructions for accessing your account are found online at newzoo.org.
Please note: The NEW Zoo will close at 3:00 p.m. on Zoo Boo Fridays and 1:00 p.m. on Zoo Boo Saturdays to prepare for the event.
