Final Weekend of Boo at the Zoo Kicks Off with Special Guest from Norton Children’s

Louisville Zoo

The Louisville Zoo is celebrating the final weekend of its 43rd annual Boo at the Zoo, presented by Meijer, from Oct. 24 – 27. This family-favorite event offers a “merry, not scary” Halloween experience for guests of all ages. Families and children are invited to enjoy after-hours trick-or-treating, costumed fun, and spooky attractions such as the Spooktacular Carousel and the Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow.

As a special highlight, 12-year-old Amelia Stillwell, who is currently receiving care from Norton Children’s, will help kick off the festivities by officially opening the route on Thursday, Oct. 24, at 5 p.m.

Tickets are all-inclusive, providing access to Boo at the Zoo admission, parking, and access to all attractions. The event runs rain or shine through Sunday, Oct. 27 (Thursday–Sunday nights).
