Let the shadows of a cattle drive lead you to the edge of the Zoo tunnel, where you can grab some glow items or fuel up on sips ‘n’ snacks before you turn around to venture through the rest of ZooNorth for you Dallas Zoo Lights adventure.

Flamingle among the famingoes in this flock-tacular setting! You will find the familiar feathers of our flamingo lanterns and flamingo photo ops - pose among the pinkness, if you will!

Grab your friends or family to snap pictures among the flock or on our Fabulous Flamingo Chair to create a memory.

And the MUST SEE is the picturesque Rainbow Bridge that puts on a rainbow-hued show as you walk over a bridge that served as the original entrance to the Zoo, way back in the early 1900s.

You will find an entrance to Prime Meridian Cafe, if you’d like to grab a seat and some food - and don’t miss the live local musical groups performing nightly in Prime Meridian!

Stop for a photo op with a dinosaur (a preview of what you’ll find at the end of the walkway!) and keep your eyes peeled for everyone’s favorite “frozen queen.”

If you pass through where our tigers roam, and past where the otters splash, you’ll find Otter Falls Outpost where you can stop for a hot cocoa.

The Prime Meridian Café is in the heart of ZooNorth, next to the The Grove. This café includes ample indoor seating, with tables on an outdoor deck that overlooks the flamingo pond. Food options include sandwiches, salads, burgers, pizza, and more. Don’t forget to pick up a reusable conservation cup featuring zoo animals and facts — it can be refilled for a discount at many Zoo restaurants! Eaters with dietary restrictions will find gluten-free, low-carb, and vegetarian options.

Just past the Canopy of Lights, take a seat in our amphitheater to see this year’s all-new light show set to pop tunes and holiday faves. Look around and you might notice that a few of the rainforest animals have followed you out of the Canopy of Lights and have settled in to watch the show.

The show starts every 15 minutes.

The Grove transforms into Santa’s Holiday Storyland this year, with Santa quite literally sitting center-stage for photos all night, every night!

You’ll find photo op after interactive space across The Grove - gather your crew for a “sleigh the night away” photo, take a selfie in the Heart of Christmas ornament, pose with a penguin and its igloo, or step inside a snow globe for holiday-card worthy photo. Kids (or adults!) can jump on light-up pavers on the ground, or dash among a Christmas tree maze or along a candy cane lane.

You can pop into Prime Meridian Cafe from The Grove. Or from fresh-fired pizza, to gourmet holiday tamales and treats, to s’mores kits for the fire pits - we’ve got you covered so you can sit and stay for a while in this holiday wonderland.

Look for hands-on activities for the kids, or enjoy a virtual reality ride with the elves at our Wild Explorer VR experience on the edge of The Grove.

Commemorate your visit with a photo at our 30-foot-tall multi-colored tree - and be sure to tag @DallasZoo if you post on social!
