However, we’ve officially sold out of ZooLights tickets for the season! But don’t despair – keep checking back! We will be paying very close attention to attendance at ZooLights. If we notice that a lot of people reserve tickets but are not attending, we will be able to open more slots. We did leave some wiggle room. So please be patient and keep checking back!
