Knoxville Zoo invites residents to get into the spirit of Halloween at Knoxville’s largest Halloween event.
BOO! at the Zoo, celebrates the season with not-too-scary Halloween fun. BOO! at the Zoo takes place Thursday through Sunday, Oct. 28 through 31, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. each evening at Knoxville Zoo.
A Halloween tradition for 24 years, BOO! at the Zoo is a family event featuring kid-friendly music and games at the Monster Mash tent in The Clayton Family Kids Cove, costumed characters throughout the zoo, and the only “haunted” carousel in East Tennessee, the Scary-Go-Round. (How can you tell it’s haunted? It goes backwards, of course.)
It wouldn’t be Halloween without the trick-or-treating! One of the highlights of BOO! at the Zoo is the BOO! Trail, where little trick-or-treaters can fill their bag with goodies as they make their way through the zoo.
Each night will feature a variety of entertainment, from belly dancers and jugglers to a Cinderella princess and out-of-this-world STAR WARS and Star Trek characters.
For updated information about each evening’s activities, visit the zoo’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/knoxvillezoo. Boo! at the Zoo tickets are $6 per person. Children younger than two are admitted free. Parking is $5.
Tickets are available in advance online at www.knoxvillezoo.org, or at the zoo’s ticket office during regular zoo hours. Tickets are also available at all Knoxville area Kroger stores. Knoxville Zoo members receive a $1 discount on admission and free parking on all tickets purchased online and at the zoo’s ticket window. (Member discounts not available at Kroger.)
