Plan Your Visit To Zoo Lights In Pittsburgh This Winter

Christmastime is a magical time in the Pittsburgh-area, usually brimming with fun, family-friendly activities all season long. While things will certainly look different during the holiday season this year, because of the pandemic, fun still awaits. Pile the whole family in the car, for example, for a drive through the Zoo Lights in Pittsburgh.

The Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium will transform into a Winter Wonderland with its Zoo Lights Drive-Thru experience, set for November 27, 2020 through January 3, 2021.

Zoo Lights provides a safe and a fun way to celebrate the holiday season as you slowly make your way through the zoo that’s illuminated by thousands of twinkling lights.

Turn your vehicle’s radio to the designated station to listen to the themed programming that will play as you meander through the zoo that's dotted with light displays and favorite characters.

The drive-thru Zoo Lights experience will run for approximately an hour, although your wait time in line might make the evening longer.

All guests must purchase timed tickets and must remain in their vehicle the entire time. Be sure to use the bathroom before heading to the zoo, as restrooms will be closed during the event.

Tickets are on sale now and cost $60 per vehicle. If you’re a zoo member, you’ll pay just $40.

The zoo recommends bringing binoculars along for the Zoo Lights and downloading the audio tour before your visit.
