Lincoln Park Zoo Lights

Updated December 2, 2020

The Lincoln Park Zoo is one of the most festive places to visit during the holiday season Whether its a night out with the family or you’re going on a date, the lights display is something that people of all ages can enjoy. The zoo is open at 7:00am and closes at 6:00pm and has free admission! Enjoy the animals and lights until January 4th this winter, just don’t forget to bundle up for the weather! 

Beautiful snow globe photo op spot! We LOVED the bright, white lights!

While walking through the zoo, you will experience so many different light displays and other fun photo opportunity spots! One of our absolute favorites was the snow globe installation (where you can stand inside and get a picture), it was honestly so stunning! They also have lights of all types of various animals which is very fun to see.

Other than lights, you are able to take a ride on a ferris wheel, watch some ice sculptors make beautiful designs, and you can even potentially see some carolers. We definitely give the Lincoln Park ZooLights display our stamp of approval. It is fun for anyone of all ages and it sure does get you into the holiday spirit.
