Zooluminate is back! Bigger and better than ever!

Experience a magical and wintery walk around the gorgeous site, taking in a series of beautiful light installations (from JHAV, the incredible team that brought you The Atlantic Project and Illuminate Festival of Light), which bring the zoo to life after dark in the most enchanting way possible!

Even if you’ve experienced Zooluminate before, with a whole host of new and exciting installations, you won’t want to miss the brand-new Zooluminate experience this year!

There are stunning installation spaces the entire way around our site, so you’ll have plenty of opportunities for those selfies, plus – some of the enclosures are going to be illuminated, so you might even get the chance to see the animals all snuggled up for the night.

They can’t guarantee the animals will be outside of their cosy homes, but the lights have been specifically researched and chosen to illuminate without causing any harm or disruption, so if they’re outside, you should be able to capture some wonderful evening photos of the very happy animals.

The Jaguar Restaurant is open daily until 19.00 throughout the event, offering a whole host of delicious food, drink and snack options to refuel your Zoo adventure, including some festive specials.
