Join us for Zoo Lights at the Lake Superior Zoo, our annual after-hours event filled with holiday cheer. Stroll through light displays and see the giant animal inflatables that make this event special. Enjoy free s’mores, take part in a craft activity, and warm up with hot chocolate and treats from the Safari Café. Santa will be here every night to hear holiday wishes, and live music will be featured on select evenings. Be sure to visit the Tiger’s Paw Gift Shop for light-up items to remember your night at the zoo. This year, we’re adding something new to Zoo Lights — guests 21 and older can enjoy cocktails, beer, wine, or seltzers on the Tiger Deck or as they stroll through the beautifully lit pathways, now that the zoo is officially licensed to serve alcohol.
