Wear At Costume For Boo At The Zoo

While costumes for Boo at the Zoo are welcomed, but they are required. Adults may wear costumes but they should be family-friendly and not scary. Adults may not wear costume masks that cover the entire face.

Several local businesses will provide free treats to guests during Boo at the Zoo so many sure you're ready to collect more candy ahead of trick-or-treat night in your community.
