Experience an extra weekend of fun, free rides & more!
Now in its 28th year, Boo at the Zoo, presented by Citizens Bank, is adding a third weekend of fun. This year's safe, family-friendly event will run Fridays thru Sundays, October 13-15, October 20-22 and October 27-29 from 5 to 9 p.m.
New this year, every entry ticket also includes unlimited free rides on the Boomerang Line train, Circle of Wildlife Carousel and access to the 4-D Theater which will be featuring a special Halloween-themed film. Additional activities include character meet-and-greets, a hay maze, more treat stations, the Monster Mash Dance Party, and, of course, your favorite Cleveland Metroparks Zoo animals!
"Boo at the Zoo is a Halloween tradition in Cleveland, and a spectacular event for people of all ages to enjoy," said Ralph Della Ratta, president, Citizens Bank, Ohio. "Citizens Bank is excited to join the family-friendly fun this fall as presenting sponsor."
For nine magical nights, families can dress up as an adorable animal or spectacular superhero at the Zoo. Guests are encouraged to wear a fun (not scary) costume (adults should refrain from wearing masks that completely cover their faces). Each child will receive a complimentary treat bag and the opportunity to visit treat stations. Guests are encouraged to bring flashlights to illuminate some of the darker areas of the Zoo.
Several nights sell out each year, so get your tickets before they disappear! Tickets are available now at
clevelandmetroparks.com/boo and at the Zoo's Box Office. Zoo Member admission is $9.50 online and $10.50 at the Zoo Box Office. General admission is $10.50 online and $11.50 at the Zoo Box Office. Children younger than two are free. Parking is free. Located at 3900 Wildlife Way, the Zoo is easily accessible from Interstates 71, 90 and 480.
