ZooLights holiday show
lasts through Jan. 5
Zoolights, 5he Oregon Zoo’s walk-through
winter wonderland of more than 1.6 million col-
ored lights is more popular than ever and this
year is accommodating the nightly crowds past
the New Year’s holiday to Sunday, Jan. 5.
Over the past five years, more than a million
zoo visitors have strolled through the forests of
lighted trees, been dazzled by life-size illumi-
nated animal silhouettes and ridden the light-be-
decked zoo trains.
Visitors who ride MAX to ZooLights can get a
$5 discount with proof of ridership, saving the has-
sle of finding a parking spot when lots become full.
You can also buy your admission tickets in
advance and bypass the tickets line at the front
gate. Reservations for zoo train rides also can be
made in advance so people can stroll around the
grounds and enjoy the lights until their appoint-
ed train time. Visit oregonzoo.org/zoolights for
more information.
