The Akron Zoo’s popular Halloween event, Boo at the Zoo, returns on Saturdays and Sundays in October.
Guests can trick-or-treat at the 12 treat stations throughout the zoo during the non-scary event. Guests of all ages are encouraged to dress in Halloween costumes, but adults are prohibited from covering their face with costume masks, mascot heads or face paint.
The Akron Zoo participates in the Teal Pumpkin Project, which provides non-food options for any guest with food allergies. Guests can request a Teal Pumpkin treat at each station.
Zoothing Boo at the Zoo is on Saturday, Oct. 26 at 10 a.m. During this special time, guests with different abilities will be able to trick-or-treat without loud noises and crowds before the zoo opens for Boo at the Zoo general admission. Tickets are separate from general admission and a limited number are available to help control crowd sizes. Zoothing Boo tickets are available at akronzoo.org/zoothing-boo-at-the-zoo.
Boo at the Zoo, will be held on Saturdays and Sundays, Oct. 12-13, 19-20 and 26-27 from 11 a.m. – 7 p.m.
Tickets are available at akronzoo.org/boo-at-the-zoo.
