Don’t be scared… We have 10 tips for Boo at the Zoo!



  1. Wear layers - You never know what the weather may be like here on the side of the mountain. Wear layers so you are prepared for anything.
  2. Bring a flashlight - The zoo is lit for this event, but it’s always nice to have a little extra light.
  3. Save money for hot chocolate - Bring a little extra money to warm up at the Grizzly Grill with a cup of hot chocolate.
  4. Wear comfortable shoes - Don’t forget when you’re planning your costume, comfy footwear is a must for the terrain here at the zoo
  5. Bring a bag - There is plenty of orangutan friendly candy for everyone during Boo at the Zoo! Don’t forget your reusable treat bag.
  6. Skip the parking line - Use the FREE shuttle, leaving from the Broadmoor Fire Department. You can purchase your Boo at the Zoo tickets right on the shuttle.
  7. Renew your membership - Don’t forget to renew your zoo membership before the event to take advantage of the special members-only admission discount.
  8. Bring your Zeezo’s receipt – Remember to bring your Zeezo’s receipt during the first weekend to receive a $2 admission discount (valid Oct. 21-23 only).
  9. Check your watch – Make sure to keep tabs on time so you don’t miss “Things That Go Bump in the Night” animal show performed nightly at 6:15, 7:15 and 8:00 at Lodge at Moose Lake.
  10. Don’t forget to HAVE FUN!
