GloWild

GloWild is a nighttime experience at the Kansas City Zoo & Aquarium where the animal habitats and grounds are illuminated with colorful lights and holiday décor. Families stroll through the zoo after dark to see animals in their habitats set against a festive, glowing backdrop—think luminous decorations, themed pathways, and the chance to spot nocturnal and twilight-active animals. It's a magical way to experience the zoo in a completely different atmosphere, blending wildlife viewing with seasonal celebration. Dress warmly and bring comfortable walking shoes.
