Christmas for the Animals + Zoo Lights

Sunday, December 21st

Event activities from 10am-5pm, Zoo Lights from 5-8pm

Christmas for the Animals is our oldest Alaska Zoo tradition, dating back to the 1970’s. We gather to enjoy a bonfire, photos with Santa, holiday activities, and most important - visitors bring food donations to stuff large stockings at all of the animal habitats. Bring a sled, load it up with food items from our animal donation list and stuff stockings to support the animals.

Zoo Lights are free for zoo members, too.
