Fall Zootacular: October 24 & 25

October 24, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - October 25, 2020 @ 5:00 pm

This year Potter Park Zoo is celebrating fall in a whole new way! Put on your best Halloween costumes and celebrate with the whole family at Potter Park Zoo!
  • Join family and friends for a socially distanced stroll through the zoo and enjoy the beautiful autumn colors and fall décor. See your favorite animals while in costume.
  • Boo in a bag! All of our candy stations have been combined into one treat bag, which will be handed out as guests exit the zoo.
  • Participate in unique no contact activities as you stroll through the one way path through the zoo (you may adventure around the zoo as many times as you’d like!)
  • Enjoy a fall favorite – cider & donuts for sale only during Fall Zoo-tacular weekends. Delicious Groovy donuts will be for sale, provided by Capital City Market!

Please note: “Fall Zootacular” does not include the activities that the zoo offered at Boo at the Zoo. No activity tickets will be available for purchase inside the zoo.

Guidelines for Visiting the Zoo

Masks are required to enter the zoo, when indoors, and when within six feet of anyone outside of your household. Mobility devices and stroller rentals, membership sales, and the AniMall Gift Shop are located in an indoor area where masks are required. If you do not bring your mask with you, you will be asked to purchase one at admissions. Thank you for helping to keep the zoo a safe place for everyone!

Signs and paw prints have been placed throughout the zoo to guide guests in proper social distance. Please be patient at viewing areas and if all marked spaces are occupied, wait until a household exits the viewing area to take their place. All indoor animal viewing areas are closed.
