A Fall Day at the Saint Louis Zoo
The Saint Louis Zoo looks beautiful as the park prepares for the holiday season. The Zoo’s Wild Lights event runs select nights throughout December and features light displays as well as fun holiday themed activities. Zoo guests can listen to carolers sing, drink hot chocolate and watch ice sculptures being created. A selection of animal exhibits will also be open during the Wild Lights event plus kids’ rides and shopping and souvenir opportunities.
