Grab the costumes, because Boo at the Zoo is back at the Edmonton Valley Zoo for two weekends this October.
This not-so-scary Halloween celebration is made for all ages. Kids can collect candy at trick-or-treat stops throughout the zoo, meet magical guest characters, and get crafty with spooky activities along the way.
The animals get in on the fun too. Watch your favourites dig into special Halloween enrichment treats of their own, and learn how your family can help support conservation at the zoo.
It's a perfect costume test run before the big night, and a great pick for little ones who want all the Halloween fun without the frights.
Tickets are regular zoo admission and can be bought online in advance or at the front gate. Zoo Memberships and Leisure Access Program Memberships apply. If you're booking online, remember to adjust the dates in the search bar.
