Cincinnati Zoo Closed Tomorrow
CINCINNATI (December 22, 2022) – Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden will be closed tomorrow, December 23rd, due to severe weather expected in our region. A December 24th and 25th closure was already scheduled. If visitors were planning to visit with Santa before he heads back to the North Pole, tonight will be the last night to do so. Santa visits start at 4pm.
PNC Festival of Lights, which was just voted Best Zoo Lights by USA TODAY’s readers for the fifth year in a row, will reopen on Monday, December 26 (depending on weather conditions) and runs through January 8, 2023.
