There will be more than 30 lighted displays artfully placed throughout zoo grounds featuring zoo animals, marine animals, and nature. Dive in and experience dazzling ocean scenes including a magnificent swimming whale, playful fish, and scurrying crabs. Dramatic archways illuminate the way on a magical journey past colorful peacocks, and even a lion family glowing with pride. Kids (or kids at heart) can become part of the magic while leaping from star to star creating their own cosmic tunes, or stepping close to a bubble breathing crab. Take home memories at the World Market with festival inspired handmade artisan crafts or the Safari Trader Gift Shop. Enjoy food or a drink at the Café Africa or the S’mores station. We will have hot chocolate, apple cider, canned Beverages and adult Beverages. Have questions? click here GLO Wild is a rain or shine event.
