Get ready for a wild Halloween as Boo at the Zoo returns to Whipsnade Zoo this October half term.

Brave visitors can enjoy spooky stories, ghostly rides, creepy crafts with plenty of opportunities for dressing up. There’ll also be a chance to delve into Whipsnade’s creepy past on a Ghastly Ghost Tour, climb aboard the Spooky Railway to spot bats, or settle down for Halloween Storytime sessions - while the Wildlife Graveyard and daily Science Shows will reveal surprising facts about how animals use poison and venom to survive.

Those who dare can get creative decorating their own pumpkin tealight, or concoct their own sand art potion. While little ones are getting crafty, grown-ups can enjoy a seasonal pumpkin spice latte and soak up the spooky atmosphere. And anyone who comes dressed can enter the zoo’s daily costume competition – for a chance to win a prize.

Alongside the Halloween fun, visitors can see more than 10,000 amazing animals, from majestic rhinos and elephants to playful penguins. Every visit to Whipsnade Zoo helps support the vital science and conservation work of ZSL, the conservation charity behind the Zoo.

The event runs from Saturday, October 24 to Sunday, November 1. Book tickets at here.
