Get excited Zoomagination: The Festival of Lanterns and Lights presented by Five Star Bank is back for another year! Named the most popular WNY event of 2022, this is a must-see summer attraction. Packed with an all-new lineup of lanterns, it’s time to immerse yourself in the larger-than-life displays of beautiful florals, curious creatures from under the sea, and breathtaking landmarks from around the world. Watch nightly cultural performances at our newly built performance stage, indulge in Asian-inspired food, relax in our Beer Garden with a specialty drink, and shop for artisan made goods all night long! Zoo attractions you know and love like the train and carousel will also be open. The possibilities are endless at this fan-favorite event! 

When the sun goes down (and our animals are in bed for the night) the Zoo lights up with Zoomagination: The Festival of Lanterns and Lights. There are more opportunities than ever to go for the glow this summer. Visit any night Thursday&Sunday from 6:30 pm&10:30 pm (ticket holders may enter any time between 6:30&9:45 pm) starting June 21, 2024, and running through Labor Day.  Get your tickets now for the most unforgettable event of the season!
