Armed with a flashlight, unravel the secrets of the Pavilion, working as a team to solve puzzles throughout the zoo. Join our expert guides for a one-of-a-kind, after-hours experience that weaves together storytelling, real science, and live animals. Do you have what it takes to escape the Pavilion?

Eight legs. Zero judgment. One unforgettable encounter.

Engage with invertebrates closer than ever with this one-of-a-kind tarantula experience!

This is a 30-minute private animal encounter led by an expert educator.

Get ready for a spooky-safe celebration where creepy crawlies take center stage! Wander through Butterfly Pavilion decked out in your favorite costume and discover why our invertebrates, plants, staff, and facility are the real treats of the season. Enjoy enhanced experiences throughout the day, with knowledgeable, trained staff on hand to guide you through our exhibits and answer all your buggy questions. Trick-or-treat your way around with ample candy waiting at every turn. Don't forget to swing by the gift shop for a keepsake to remember your visit.

Costumes are welcome and encouraged, just leave costume weapons and full-face masks at home so everyone can enjoy the fun safely.
