Boo at the Zoo is the wildest trick-or-treat in town! Disney princesses, Spidermans, Harry Potters, and other costumed guests are invited to join us at the eighth annual Boo at the Zoo, a safe and fun way for families with children ages two to 12 to enjoy the fall holiday. Tickets purchased at the Zoo's Visitor Center have no added fees. Introduced with great success in 1999, Boo at the Zoo offers Washington-area families and children a safe, fun-filled evening of trick-or-treating at the National Zoo. Children visit nearly 50 candy and food stations in Zoo buildings, explore three haunted trails, and participate in exciting activities throughout the evening. Animal demonstrations delight the young ghosts and goblins, and goody bags for both children and adults are distributed by costumed volunteers.
