Wild Lights at the Detroit Zoo

Wild Lights is a premier holiday light show featuring massive sculptures of animals and festive scenes throughout the Detroit Zoo's front half. Families can stroll through the park, enjoy seasonal treats like s'mores and hot chocolate, and watch a special holiday film at the 4-D Theater. The event often includes interactive displays and opportunities for holiday photos. It is a highly popular ticketed event that usually begins in mid-November and runs through the end of the year, making it a perfect outing for Thanksgiving visitors.
