The Cincinnati Zoo will be shining bright as we’re once again transformed into a “Wild Wonderland” for the 42nd annual PNC Festival of Lights!

We’re spreading Christmas cheer and making spirits bright this holiday season with the Tri-state’s longest-running holiday tradition – the 42nd Annual PNC Festival of Lights.

The event kicks off with a special member preview night on Wednesday, November 20, when more than four million LED lights will illuminate the Zoo. The tree lighting ceremony starts at 6pm.

• Preview Night is only open to Zoo members.
• Members can bring the same amount of guests included with their membership level.
• Members also have the opportunity to purchase up to four (4) half-price tickets in person at the Ticketing Windows or purchase online to save time!
