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!
