Halloween goes WILD at the Virginia Zoo’s ZooBoo! Join us on October 17 & 18 from 9am – 4pm for a family-friendly celebration packed with animal experiences, hands-on activities, and fang-tastic fun.
Carve out time to watch animals enjoy pumpkin enrichment and meet mystery Animal Ambassadors. Goblin up candy and other giveaway goodies, like an exclusive Virginia Zoo trading card, at trick-or-treat stations throughout the Zoo. Booooogie to a local DJ’s tunes, compete in costume contests, and shop a spooky market featuring local vendors.
Kids can even bounce in themed bounce houses, explore sensory-friendly activities like Touch-a-Truck, and meet special character guests.
Grab your family and fiends, put on your favorite costume, and bring your Halloween spirit to the Virginia Zoo!
