Houston’s largest family-friendly Halloween event is back and better than ever! Guests can bring their little ghouls and goblins to the Houston Zoo for Zoo Boo Presented by Bank of America.  Enjoy safe Halloween trick-or-treating, music, and fun activities with a “naturally wild” twist on Friday, October 16, 23, and 30 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday, October 17, 18, 24, 25, 31. and Nov. 1 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Guests can pick a “child-sized” pumpkin to decorate from the Fiesta Mart Pumpkin Patch; wander through a maze; show off their best Zoo Boo costume and learn how to ‘dance like a zombie’ at the Monster Mashquerade; feast their eyes on larger-than-life candy in The Candy Cave; channel their inner artist and contribute to our Monster Mural; visit our Tatzoo Parlor.  Learn interesting animal facts as they try to guess what’s in the Zoo Boo Mystery Box; all this plus Howlerween (learn how the zoo releases animals back into the wild), Halloween-themed Meet the Keeper Talks Presented by Phillips 66 and animal-themed Candy Corner candy stations.  Activities vary.

All Zoo Boo Presented by Bank of America activities are included with paid zoo admission.  Zoo Boo is free for zoo members.   The Houston Zoo is located in the Houston Museum District and only a short drive from Pearland.  See the spooktacular Zoo Boo activities online at houstonzoo.org/zooboo/ and in the Zoo Boo program at the zoo.
