The Snack Shack will be open with a full menu with some additional fall treats available for purchase and all children receive a baggie of candy upon arrival. Guests can enjoy a variety of seasonal activities offered in the park for a small fee.
- Regular admission prices apply and season passes are valid for these events!

Celebrate the season at the Wild Winter Wonderland of Lights! Our walk-through zoo is
transformed into a magical holiday experience, lit up with millions of themed twinkling lights
that make the entire park glow with festive cheer. This is a walking experience, not a drive
through. The park is fully plowed and accessible, so you can comfortably stroll through and
enjoy the lights, animals, and attractions. Weather-permitting animals will be out, bounce
houses will be open, and Santa will be here every night until Christmas for photos with the
baby Kangaroo. Our Snack Shack will be serving delicious holiday treats along with our full
menu to keep you warm and cozy. Regular season passes are not valid for this event; normal admission rates apply, and Winter Wonderland of Lights season passes are
available for purchase on Shopify or in person. Tickets are purchased at the door upon
arrival. Don’t forget to bring non-perishable food items—each item earns you one entry to
win a 1-2 person animal encounter (20 items = 20 chances, no limit!). Bundle up, bring your
holiday spirit, and come experience the magic with us!
