Cleveland Zoo Lights – Wild Winter Lights
The Cleveland Zoo Lights are back! Wild Winter Lights returns starting on November 12th and runs through the Holiday season! The Zoo opens at 5:30 PM and closes at 9:30 PM , but last entry is 8:30 PM. The Wild Winter lights are not included with your standard admission, but zoo members do get a discount and a family 4-pack is available as well to save some money! Check the Cleveland Metropark Zoo Website for all the details, as the dates and hours/ticket options may change!
We love this event and we always try and visit it on opening night! The crowds are usually low and this year did not disappoint! Due to the rainy forecast, I think there might have only been about 50 people total in the zoo and we were the last to leave the zoo. This lead to additional time with Santa and some snowball fight fun at the Dance Party!
With your admission , you do get a couple of extras, like access to the 4D theater showing Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer and rides on the Carousel! Definitely make sure to plan for a couple of hours if you want to participate in these extras!
They also have hot chocolate and Jack Frost donuts available during this event. They may also offer adult beverages like Christmas Ale, but we didn’t see any on this slower than normal Thursday.
Check out our video and our YouTube Channel for the past two years of the Wild Winter Lights too! Thanks for watching and reading!
