For those of you who have never been to Electric Safari,
here are the zoo’s top five tips, based on Christmas songs, to help you enjoy
the event.
- “Baby its cold outside…”
We help cut the chill of the
evening air with numerous heaters and fire pits placed along the Electric
Safari trail, but weather here on Cheyenne Mountain is always changing, so be
prepared. Wearing layers is always the
best way to go and don’t forget your hats, mittens and scarves!
- “Chestnuts roasting on an open fire…”
Nothing says Electric Safari like
the aromatic smells coming from the Grizzly Grill, open nightly during Electric
Safari. Make sure to stop by for hot chocolate, fresh roasted nuts and a
variety of holiday baked goods.
- “It’s Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size…”
Just a reminder, we are America ’s only
mountain zoo. When planning your clothing for Electric Safari, please remember
to wear comfortable shoes with good traction. The Electric Safari trail runs
throughout the zoo and most animal areas are open for evening viewing.
When arriving at Electric Safari,
make sure to check the Animal Happenings schedule. We host numerous animal
keeper talks and animal enrichment activities each evening, beginning at
6:00pm. If you missed one of the demonstrations, don’ worry! Create holiday
magic by helping make items used during the animal enrichment activities in The
Loft.
- “Santa Claus is coming to town…”
Make sure to see Santa and Mrs.
Claus in Primate World, from 5:30 to 8:15pm each evening through Friday,
December 23. Beat the lines and make Santa Zone your first stop of the evening.
Zoo members receive FREE admission! General admission is
$8.25 for adults and $5.25 for children age’s (3-11). Receive $2 off an adult

That's so exciting!! Santa Claus plus the adventure of going to the zoo makes it all worth it!!
This is the best gift you give your members...we wouldn't miss it! It is a great display and the heaters are a great touch! :) Thanks CMZ...you guys rock!
For Christmas, I hope we win a wonderful Texas Roadhouse gift card; a good steak and a night of lights at the Electric Safari sounds like lots of fun!
Totally made me break out in song:) would love to win too
Thank you for the lights! It was a little chilly, but well worth it!
Hope to go see this event at the zoo this year, finally. Have wanted to go for a while now. Seeing that the admission for zoo members is free definitely made the possibility of going this year a lot better. Thanks.
This looks perfect for a surprise date on Thursday. Can't wait to see the lights.
I can not wait to stop by once the family is in town! Suprisingly my family has never gone but talk about it every year. CMZ is a great zoo.
I really hope to make it to Electric Safari this year!
I am so excited to see the electric safari this year. The zoo is so beautiful all lit up. It amazes me how much there is to see at night. To anybody who has never seen the lights display, I would HIGHLY recommend it!!
Love the zoo
We have been almost every year! Last year Santa was so nice to my one year old. He was the only Santa that didn't scare her.
i would love to go see the electric safari one day it looks awesome...maybe next year i dont have time this year...also i hope i am commenting on the right blog to get enter in the drawing for the Texas Roadhouse gift cert.
I look forward to taking my little one (still 3 months left in the oven!) to Electric Safari next year & to meet Santa as well. Thanks for putting on such a great holiday event!
I think it is fantastic that the zoo creates special events such as this to make things fun for kids & adults year round :)
