Bundle up, grab your loved ones, and get ready for a wild and wonderful holiday adventure at Alexandria Zoo’s Holiday Light Safari! As you stroll the Zoo’s illuminated pathways, you'll encounter playful lighted animal figures that capture the imagination and a symphony of colorful lights that dance and shimmer among the trees. It's the perfect way to celebrate the season with friends and family, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Soak up the magical atmosphere with an enchanting journey on the train, complete with festive music and even more lights and displays.
Visit with Santa through December 21.
Stop by Atwood’s Merry Creations for a holiday cookie and craft.
While you may spot a few night owls during Holiday Light Safari, most of our residents will be catching some zzz's.
Holiday Light Safari is a separately-ticketed event. The zoo closes at 4:30 pm (last admission 3:30 pm) and re-opens as Holiday Light Safari at 5:30 pm. FOTAZ Memberships and other Zoo Passes are not valid during Holiday Light Safari. In the event of inclement weather, the decision to cancel an evening of Holiday Light Safari will be announced via the Zoo’s facebook page.
