Enter a winter wonderland illuminated by the laughter of children and more than one million lights at Lincoln Park Zoo’s annual ZooLights.
Celebrate three decades of priceless holiday memories as Lincoln Park Zoo’s annual ZooLights Presented by ComEd and Invesco QQQ returns for its 30th year this November. This beloved staple of Chicago’s holiday season will delight guests of all ages with festive attractions and more than 3 million lights across zoo grounds.
This year’s ZooLights puts an exciting, modern spin on the classic event with hundreds of LED light displays. Guests will be immersed in ethereal and interactive elements and holiday experiences throughout the zoo. They can take in stunning views of ZooLights from above on the towering Ferris Wheel and walk through the expansive light tunnel on the Main Mall.
Ticket sales from ZooLights directly support the zoo’s world-class animal care, global conservation efforts, and innovative learning programs. Events like this also help keep the zoo free to the public 365 days a year.
General admission ZooLights tickets are $7-10 per person, depending on the day. As part of the zoo’s ongoing commitment to accessibility, general admission is FREE on select Mondays, but tickets are required. Tickets will be available to the general public October 8, with a special presale for zoo members on October 1. See the full schedule and buy tickets at tickets.lpzoo.org.
